An Improved Independent Parameter Decomposition Method for Gaofen-3 Surveying and Mapping Calibration

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The Gaofen-3 (GF-3) satellite can provide digital elevation model (DEM) data from its interferogram outputs. However, the accuracy of these data cannot be ensured without applying a surveying and mapping (SAM) calibration process, thus necessitating geometric and interferometric calibration technologies.

An Epipolar HS-NCC Flow Algorithm for DSM Generation Using GaoFen-3 Stereo SAR Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Radargrammetry is a widely used methodology to generate the large-scale Digital Surface Model (DSM). Stereo matching is the most challenging step in radargrammetry due to the significant geometric differences and the inherent speckle noise.

An Adaptive GaoFen-3 SAR Wind Field Retrieval Algorithm Based on Information Entropy [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Chinese GaoFen-3 (GF-3) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery acquired in standard strip mode can capture streak features caused by wind over the sea surface, which are commonly known as wind streaks. To retrieve the sea surface wind field from a GF-3 SAR image, an adaptive wind retrieval algorithm based on information entropy is proposed in this ...

Satellite‐Based Assessment of Methane Emissions From the Darvaza Gas Crater

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, and the Darvaza crater in Turkmenistan is a rare, persistent emitter. There are uncertainties regarding its formation date (either 1963 or 1971), fire ignition, and the fire's influence on methane release. Using historical Landsat imagery, we reconstruct the fire history, identifying that combustion began ...
