文摘
We analyzed the potential of P-band SAR for forest/non-forest classification. Classifications in the context of radar to biomass estimations was studied. Different resolutions in the context of future BIOMASS mission were analyzed. Unbiased forest area estimation for the different resolutions was observed. Underestimation of biomass was observed for decreased resolution.
