Brief Description:


Polarimetry workshop has been designed for beginner level use of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image analysis techniques. The presentations will cover: "simplified" theory of SAR and polarimetry and polarimetric tools. A series of exercises have been prepared to familiarize you with the SAR images and the polarimetric tools. The SOAR data access program for RADARSAT-2 will also be presented.

Registration:

The workshop fee is $100.
Note: Workshop fee includes course material ( a CD that will include lecture notes, image data and the SARP3 freeware) and coffee breaks
