PolSAR-Ap: Exploitation of fully polarimetric SAR data for application demonstration

In this study application results are presented derived from multi-parametric SAR observations covering five different thematic domains: forest, agriculture, ocean, urban and cryosphere. In total 21 application products have been selected and described. Their application on different data sets, space- and airborne sensors, was demonstrated and can independently be reproduced by any scientist. The results and algorithms are available soon through Springer.
