Our pipeline is based on the ι2 open-source framework and fed with both time series of Sentinel-1 radar and Sentinel-2 optical images, with complementary contributions. Three conceivable scenarios are investigated with two sets of nomenclatures (17 and 43 classes): early, on-line, and late classifications. Experiments performed on 2017 show very satisfactory results (82–97%), locally almost on-par with state-of-the-art deep-based methods. We can conclude our framework offers a strong basis for country-scale operational deployment for 2020+CAP.

Orbit error removal in InSAR/MTInSAR with a patch-based polynomial model / Yanan Du in International journal of applied Earth observation and geoinformation, vol 102 (October 2021)

Usually, a set of polynomial coefficients for an entire SAR image is obtained for orbit error removal. However, the orbit error plane is influenced by overfitting in the case that the SAR satellites do not have a precise orbit. In this paper, a patch-based polynomial method is proposed to fit the orbit error plane. The new method divides an SAR image into several overlapping patches in the azimuth and range directions. Every patch obtains its own polynomial coefficients, and an iterative least-square method is used to mosaic the orbit plane. This method is tested and validated via a simulated dataset and then applied to ALOS1/2 PALSAR and Sentinel-1A datasets. The accuracy of deformation is evaluated by in situ GPS datasets. The results show that the patch-based method can fit the orbit phase plane more accurately than the traditional polynomial model with millimeter-level displacement improvement, especially in the margin areas of ALOS1/2 and for the wide-coverage Sentinel-1A datasets. Moreover, in the MTInSAR parameter calculations, the new method improves the accuracy of mean velocity calculations for ALOS1 time series, with a reduction of RMSE from 4.47 mm/yr to 3.17 mm/yr. Additionally, the new method reduces the spatial correlation of the residual topographic phase, with a mean value reduction from 0.32 m to 0.13 m.

Nevertheless, the temporal resolution of optical sensors is strongly affected by cloud cover, resulting in significant missing information. The use of complementary acquisitions, such as Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data, opens the door to the development of new multi-sensor methodologies aiming at the reconstruction of missing information. However, the joint exploitation of new radar and optical missions, such as the Sentinel, raises new challenges given the different nature and response of the two data sources. In this work, the SenRVM methodology is proposed as a new multi-sensor approach to regress SAR time series towards Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). A deep Recurrent Neural Network architecture which integrates SAR acquisitions and ancillary data is adopted. The regression task permits a continuous optical temporal resolution of 6 days. Multiple experiments are carried out to assess the SenRVM framework by studying two large-scale areas in France. Through an extensive interpretation of the results, SenRVM is evaluated on three main vegetation types (grasslands, crops, and forests).

A deep translation (GAN) based change detection network for optical and SAR remote sensing images / Xinghua Li in ISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing, vol 179 (September 2021)

The optical images reflect the abundant spectral information and geometric shape of ground objects, whose qualities are degraded easily in poor atmospheric conditions. Although synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images cannot provide the spectral features of the region of interest (ROI), they can capture all-weather and all-time polarization information. In nature, optical and SAR images encapsulate lots of complementary information, which is of great significance for change detection (CD) in poor weather situations. However, due to the difference in imaging mechanisms of optical and SAR images, it is difficult to conduct their CD directly using the traditional difference or ratio algorithms. Most recent CD methods bring image translation to reduce their difference, but the results are obtained by ordinary algebraic methods and threshold segmentation with limited accuracy. Towards this end, this work proposes a deep translation based change detection network (DTCDN) for optical and SAR images. The deep translation firstly maps images from one domain (e.g., optical) to another domain (e.g., SAR) through a cyclic structure into the same feature space. With the similar characteristics after deep translation, they become comparable. Different from most previous researches, the translation results are imported to a supervised CD network that utilizes deep context features to separate the unchanged pixels and changed pixels. In the experiments, the proposed DTCDN was tested on four representative data sets from Gloucester, California, and Shuguang village. Compared with state-of-the-art methods, the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method were confirmed.

Sentinel-1 sensitivity to soil moisture at high incidence angle and the impact on retrieval over seasonal crops / Davide Palmisano in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, Vol 59 n° 9 (September 2021)  

Public [article]  inIEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing > Vol 59 n° 9 (September 2021) . - pp 7308 - 7321 Titre : Sentinel-1 sensitivity to soil moisture at high incidence angle and the impact on retrieval over seasonal crops Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Davide Palmisano, Auteur ; Francesco Mattia, Auteur ; Anna Balenzano, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 7308 - 7321 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image radar et applications [Termes IGN] analyse de sensibilité [Termes IGN] angle d'incidence [Termes IGN] bande C [Termes IGN] carte agricole [Termes IGN] Castille-et-Leon (Espagne) [Termes IGN] corrélation temporelle [Termes IGN] cultures [Termes IGN] humidité du sol [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes IGN] Pouilles (Italie) [Termes IGN] réseau hydrographique [Termes IGN] rétrodiffusion [Termes IGN] transfert radiatif Résumé : (auteur) Approximately, 30% of the Sentinel-1 (S-1) swath over land is imaged with incidence angles higher than 40°. Still, the interplay among the scattering mechanisms taking place at such a high incidence and their implications on the backscatter information content is often disregarded. This article investigates, through an experimental and numerical study, the S-1 sensitivity to the surface soil moisture (SSM) over agricultural fields observed at low (~33°) and high (~43°) incidence angles and quantifies the impact of the incidence angle on the SSM retrieval accuracy. The study sites are the Apulian Tavoliere (Italy) and REd de MEDición de la HUmedad del Suelo (REMEDHUS) (Spain), which are both instrumented with a hydrologic network continuously measuring SSM. At low incidence angles, results confirm that for crops such as wheat and barley, dominated in C-band by surface scattering, there exists a good sensitivity of S-1 VV to SSM. At high incidence angles, the sensitivity to SSM holds through the combination of the soil attenuated and double bounce scattering. Conversely, over crops dominated by volume scattering, such as sugar beet, the S-1 VV signal is not correlated with the in situ SSM observations, neither at low nor at high incidence. For all the crops, the sensitivity of S-1 to SSM in VH is found significantly lower than in VV. The impact of the incidence angle on the SSM retrieval has been studied with a recursive algorithm based on a short-term change detection approach. An upper and lower bounds for the worsening of the S-1 VV retrieval performance at far versus near range observations have been estimated. In the worst-case scenario, the root mean square error (RMSE) increases from ~0.056 m 3 /m 3 , at low incidence, to ~0.071 m 3 /m 3 , at high incidence. The mechanism that lowers the retrieval accuracy at high incidence angles is further investigated in the synthetic experiment and its impact on the RMSE is estimated in terms of the volume scattering contribution.
