Section: satellite data processing
Author: RSD Group
The technical availability of free Sentinel-1 radar imagery gives good opportunities for their use to solve a wide range of applied problems in the area of Earth remote sensing.
This paper illustrates some PHOTOMOD Radar software package capabilities for Sentinel-1 imagery processing. The paper comprises several processing examples:
• Digital elevation model creation by the two-pass interferometry method
• Creating a surface type digital map by the interferometric method
• Detecting surface vessels and estimating their characteristics
• Detecting oil slicks in radar imagery
• Analyzing sea waves in radar imagery
• Orthorectifying of radar imagery
