Abstract:Satellite monitoring of icebergs in the Arctic region is paramount for the safety of shipping and maritime activities. The potential of PolSAR data in enhancing detection capabilities of icebergs under interchangeable and challenging conditions is explored in this work. We introduce RADARSAT-2 (RS2) quadpol C-band data to detect icebergs in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard. The location contains two tidewater glaciers and is chosen because multiple processes are present in this region such as ice formation and its relat… Show more
