Abstract:This thesis presents the processing design and development towards an improved land cover classification of multi-look POLSAR data. In this context, three related processing aspects, namely edge detection, speckle suppression and region-based segmentation, were investigated. To detect edges in speckle-corrupted POLSAR data, two new edge detectors, which are based separately on the Roy's largest eigenvalue and trace ratio, were proposed. Their capabilities were compared with three other edge detectors, which us… Show more
