The increased number of polarimetric interferometric datasets collected over a range of biomes allows for more complete characterization of performance and an increased understanding of the underlying scattering mechanisms in multi-baseline polinsar determinations of vegetation structure. UAVSAR collected at La Amistad, Costa Rica in February of 2010 L-band radar data encompassing a range of physical and temporal baselines. To understand these datasets more fully we have modified the ESA PolSARProSim scattering tool to allow more flexible and accurate scattering simulations. This paper compares polinsar UAVSAR data collected at La Amistad and La Selva, Costa Rica to simulated data from PolSARProSim+.
