Crop biomass estimation using multi regression analysis and neural networks from multitemporal L-band polarimetric synthetic aperture radar data
2019
ABSTRACTBiomass has a direct relationship with agricultural production and may help to predict crop yield. Earth observation technology can contribute significantly to monitoring given the availability of temporally frequent and high-resolution radar or optical satellite data. Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) has several advantages for operational monitoring given that at these longer wavelengths atmospheric and illumination conditions do not affect acquisitions and considering the sensitivity of microwaves to the structural properties of targets. Therefore, SARs are a promising source of data for crop mapping and monitoring. With increasing access to SARs the development of robust methods to monitor crop productivity is timely.In this paper, we examine the use of machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches to analyze a time series of Polarimetric parameters for crop biomass estimation. In total, 14 polarimetric parameters from a time series of Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Syntheti...
