In this paper, an unsupervised classification method is proposed for full polarimetric SAR data. The Wishart segmentation algorithm is used to perform the segmentation. The backscatter mechanism power SPAN combined with the entropy H and the α angle is used to initialize this segmentation. The experiments show that though the performance of this H/α/SPAN classification is only slightly better than the one provided by the Wishart H/α/A method in general areas, it is greatly improved compared with the H/α/A in the farm areas.
