Design and evaluation of a theree component feature model for water body extraction and crop classification using neighborhood search technique on C Band Sar Data

Abstract

newline The estimation and monitoring of a nation s resources is most important in newlinedecision making for the nation s development. The space segment provides an newlineefficient and robust platform for earth observation, enabling continuous monitoring newlineof resources. newlineSynthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a robust tool for earth observation from newlinespace, as it can reliably operate in adverse atmospheric conditions. Water bodies newlineand crops are two crucial factors that require continuous monitoring, especially due newlineto their high variability during the monsoon season. The continuous monitoring newlineof water and crop resources is essential for the sustained development of any newlinecivilization.
