On the Role of Polarimetric Decomposition and Speckle Filtering Methods for C-Band SAR Wetland Classification Purposes
Abstrakt
Previous wetlands studies have thoroughly verified the usefulness of data from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensors in various acquisition modes. However, the effect of the processing parameters in wetland classification remains poorly explored. In this study, we investigated the influence of speckle filters and decomposition methods with different combinations of filter and decomposition windows sizes on classification accuracy. We used a C-band Radarsat 2 image acquired over a wetland located in northeast Poland. We processed the SAR data using various speckle filters: boxcar, intensity-driven adaptive-neighborhood (IDAN), improved Lee sigma, refined Lee (in 5×5 to 11×11 pixel window sizes), and a nonlocal NL-SAR. Next, we processed the nonfiltered and filtered data using nine polarimetric decompositions, also in 5×5 to 11×11 pixel window sizes. The extracted polarimetric features were applied as an input dataset in the random forest classification model in single- and multidecomposition scenarios. In the single-decomposition scenario, the Cloude–Pottier decomposition produced the highest (72%) and the Touzi decomposition achieved the lowest (38%) accuracy. The IDAN filter with an 11×11 filter window and a 9×9 decomposition window had the highest, and the nonfiltered data with a 5×5 decomposition window had the lowest accuracy in the multidecomposition scenario. The most important features were the alpha parameter from the Cloude–Pottier decomposition, the polarimetric contribution of the Shannon entropy, and the volume backscattering components. The results stress the importance of appropriate processing parameters in the SAR data classification workflow, and the study guides in selecting the most suitable combination of radar image processing parameters for wetland classification.
