Water Surfaces Detection From Sentinel-1 Sar Images Using Deep Learning, Chao Huang Lin
All Master's Theses
Nowadays, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images have been widely used in the industry and the scientific community for different remote sensing applications. The main advantage of SAR technology is that it can acquire images from nighttime since it does not require sunlight. Additionally, it can capture images under the cloud where the traditional optical sensor is limited. It is very convenient to use SAR image for surface water detection because the flatness of the calm water surface reflects off all the energy from the radar and this makes the surface water appears in a SAR image as dark pixels. The …
