ALOS-2 preliminary calibration assessment

2015 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2015
ALOS-2 satellite has been successfully launched by JAXA on May 24th 2014, it is equipped with an L-Band (PALSAR-2) fully polarimetric SAR. Many improvements have been made with respect to the former ALOS satellite: the exploitation of a dual receiving antenna allows to broaden the imaged swath whereas spotlight mode ensures a very high resolution on a ...

ALOS-2 Observations of Subsidence in Shenzhen

IGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019
Subsidence has been reported in land reclamation area of Shenzhen. In this study, time series InSAR technique is employed to determine the surface movements in Shenzhen in the period between 2015 and 2018 using ALOS-2 images. Subsidence can be observed in Qianhai, Houhai, and the area to the south of Bao'an International Airport.

MONITORING OF FISHING BOATS BY ALOS-2/4 DATA

IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020
SAR remote sensing has been attractive as an efficient tool to monitor a vast expanse of the ocean due to its flexible operability with wide swath. In this context, many applications have been developed for ocean traffic monitoring based on conventional ship detection techniques. Nowadays, ScanSAR modes usually covers around 500 km of swath with coarse
