Detection of Structure Lines in 2D and 3D Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Inhalt:
The extraction of structure lines such as breaking edges is done using a variety of different methods and algorithms. As SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) data gain more importance in Remote Sensing, the need for edge detectors capable to deal with this type of input increases. In this paper different ways to extract the information from the SAR data are discussed. Therefore 2D information as well as 3D DEM information is used. To investigate the usability of the methods airborne SAR data in S- and X-Band is used.
