SAR images from the Swedish airborne CARABAS-II and LORA systems have been visually analyzed over simulated wind-thrown forest at both single tree and stand level. In ideal conditions, the results show that LORA is more accurate than CARABAS-II at detecting wind-thrown trees, regardless of tree size and direction of the fallen trees relative to flight heading. Furthermore, the visible single trees...
A first evaluation of ALOS PALSAR data for forest stem volume estimation has been performed at a coniferous dominated test site in Sweden. In total, 7 Fine Beam Single polarization (FBS, look angle 34.3deg, HH-polarization) and 7 Polarimetric (PLR, look angle 21.5deg, HH-, HV-, VH-, and W- polarization) SAR images were used. In total, 56 forest stands with stem volume in the range of 45-650 m3 ha"1...
A controlled experiment has been performed to quantify the ability to detect clear-cuts using ALOS PALSAR data. The experiment consisted of 8 old spruce dominated stands, each with a size of about 1.5 ha, located at a test site in southern Sweden. Four of the stands were clear-felled and the remaining stands were left untreated for reference. A time series of PALSAR images was acquired prior to, during,...
