This article proposes a layover compensation method for regional spaceborne SAR imagery, which was applied to Chinese Gaofen-3 (GF-3) SAR regional images and successfully compensated for 84.5% of the layover pixels.
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images reveal severe geometric distortions especially in the mountain area, such as layover, which is caused by imaging characteristics of SAR itself and terrain undulations. The layover phenomenon greatly limits the application of SAR images. This article proposes a layover compensation method for regional spaceborne SAR imagery without ground control points (GCPs), which is mainly improved from two aspects. First, a method based on rational function model (RFM) to determine the layover range is proposed. Second, based on geometric calibration and block adjustment, the processing flow is optimized to generate digital orthophoto map (DOM) which greatly eliminated the influence of layover. The proposed method was applied to Chinese Gaofen-3 (GF-3) SAR regional images, including the ascending and descending track stacks. The result showed that 84.5% of the layover pixels on the regional DOM were compensated, which verified the effectiveness and feasibility of the method.
