Inhalt:
A notable obstacle hindering widespread application of SAR tomography for 3D mapping of vegetation is the relatively large number of acquisitions that are needed to obtain a high resolution and a good rejection of spurious responses in the direction perpendicular to the line of sight. In this paper, we discuss the impact of different baseline constellations on 3-D mapping of vegetation volumes and the underlying topography in terms of tomographic focusing as well as classical single-baseline repeat-pass interferometry. The effects are studied using two airborne tomography data sets at L- and P-bands.
