Time-domain back projection (TDBP) method outperforms other conventional methods at focusing and phase-preserving, but suffer from huge computational complexity when the underlying scene is large. In this article, an efficient method exploiting by frequency-domain back projection (FDBP) is presented for high-resolution InSAR imaging. In the scheme, the coherent integration of focusing is efficient achieved by frequency-domain Fourier transform, and a delayed-distance is compensated to phase-preserving of InSAR. Simulation and experiment results demonstrates that FDBP algorithm improves the computational efficiency by three times while maintaining the similar focusing accuracy compared with the conventional TDBP method.","PeriodicalId":444267,"journal":{"name":"IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium","volume":"233 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122393266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we present LULC classification for the Taipei City, Taiwan based on Sentinel-2B image acquired in 2018. A recently-proposed Nomalized Difference Laten Heat Index (NDLI) and Nomalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) are ultilized and compared to derive LULC, in particular, water bodies. Validation is based on reference datasets collected from Google Earth and field survey. Overall accuracices of classification are about 76% for NDLI and 91% for NDVI. However, it is shown that NDLI is highly capable to distinguish the water bodies from the others, such as built-up and bareland with accuracies of 100% and 95%, respectively, while NDVI shows better perfomance on vegetation classificantion only. In addition, it is found that shortwave infrared (SWIR)-2 (band 12) is more sensitive to identify the water bodies in comparison to SWIR-1 (band 11) of Sentinel-2B image to compute NDLI for extracting water bodies. This result further demonstrates that NDLI can be used as an effective indicator to detect and map the water surface or built-up or bareland by using Sentinel-2 imagery as initially suggested by Liou et al.

The traditional Stolt migration algorithm requires a wideband signal and large antenna array for implementing a high-resolution imaging reconstruction, which traditionally suffers from high sampling rate requirements and long time for data collection. On the contrary, the proposed CS-based Stolt migration imaging algorithm establishes a sparse transform between the raw measurement data and the migrated imaging results, it considers the physical propagation process of the electromagnetic wave and does not require a prior knowledge of the transmitted pulse. This imaging algorithm can provide better imaging quality; while reducing both the required sampling rate and number of measurements.

As the results show, there is a significant positive correlation between NH3 concentration and vegetation conditions. The relationship has a clear intraannual pattern, while it has great spatial heterogeneity. Another finding is that nighttime NH3 observations generally have a better correlation with vegetation conditions. Still, deeper investigations and model simulations are needed to explain the mechanism behind this relationship and its spatial and temporal patterns.","PeriodicalId":444267,"journal":{"name":"IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114287655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, images can only be visualized using three spectral channels for red, green, and blue (RGB) colors. Generating realistic RGB images using HSI is seldom the main focus of remote sensing researchers, and is therefore sometimes lacking. In this paper, we present an algorithm which creates realistic color images of HSI, using standardized methods. Research, conducted on the human perception of color in the 1920s culminated in the CIE 1931 XYZ color space. The algorithm maps every spectral band in the visible spectrum to the XYZ color space, using D65 as the reference illuminant, and then maps the XYZ to the sRGB (standard Red Green Blue) color space. The image is gamma-corrected and finally thresholded to improve contrast. The method was validated using two HSIs, creating realistic color images.","PeriodicalId":444267,"journal":{"name":"IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114468738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
