Abstract
Using interferometric techniques, a complex coherence image was genera ted from a pair of complex SAR data. Amplitude images were computed fr om the SAR and coherence images and subjected to Principal Components Analysis. The first channel of this analysis is an image of remarkable clarity and detail, suitable for various applications. A good litholo gic interpretation was realized from this single image channel alone.
