Abstract
The objective was to produce a mosaic of several
polarimetric ALOS/Palsar scenes in such a form that
polarimetric
processing methods - like polarization synthesis and
various decomposition techniques - can be applied to the
mosaic product.
A small mosaic was produced of four partly overlapping
polarimetric Palsar scenes in Finnish Lapland. In mosaic
compilation, the image geometry was revised using 77 tie
points (produced by automatic image correlation) and 13
manually measured ground control points (GCP). The
residual mean square error for GCPs was 13.6 m in
northing and 19.8 m in easting. Radiometric normalization
of topographic effects was done using a digital elevation
model.
