    Abstract

    Six polarimetric change detection indices were tested on L band ALOS PALSAR data over Kuortane, Finland. Tests included quantitative evaluation of change indices compared to reference change maps, and qualitative evaluation by visual inspection. Results suggest an additional accuracy using fully polarimetric data in change detection. Contrast Ratio and the Wishart test gave the best results among the tested indices.
