This paper describes a technique of extracting underwater laver cultivation nets by using entropy analysis from ALOS-PALSAR polarimetric data in the waters around Futsu Horn, Japan.
The method is based on the difference in the backscattered fields from the almost specular surface above the laver nets and slightly rough surface in open water. Under weak to moderate wind conditions, the backscattered field from open water is dominated by the surface (Bragg) scattering. While the laver nets are placed at a few centimeter below the sea surface, and therefore waves are damped, resulting in the specular surface causing little radar backscatter. This difference in radar cross section (RCS) can be detected by X-band TerraSAR-X, but the difference is too small to detect because both the surfaces are effectively smooth for PALSAR L-band microwave. However, since the radar backscatter from the specular surface is at noise level, the image can be regarded as arising from a random process of various scattering contributions. Polarimetric entropy should then be higher than the single-bounce surface scattering from the open water.
We will show that the polarimetric entropy is an effective means of identifying the underwater laver nets in comparison with the RCS- based method from PALSAR L-band data. |
