O mosaico global de 25 m do PALSAR/PALSAR-2 é uma imagem global de SAR contínua criada pela junção de faixas de imagens de SAR do PALSAR/PALSAR-2. Para cada ano e local, os dados de faixa foram selecionados por inspeção visual dos mosaicos de navegação disponíveis durante o período, sendo usados preferencialmente aqueles que mostram resposta mínima à umidade da superfície. Em casos em que a disponibilidade era limitada (por exemplo, devido à necessidade de observações durante emergências específicas), os dados foram selecionados do ano anterior ou posterior, incluindo 2006.
Shimada et al. 2014
Não há dados de 2011 a 2014 devido à diferença entre a cobertura temporal do ALOS e do ALOS-2.
As imagens de SAR foram ortorretificadas e corrigidas por inclinação usando o modelo digital de elevação SRTM de 90 m.
Um processo de remoção de faixas (Shimada & Isoguchi, 2002, 2010) foi aplicado para igualar as diferenças de intensidade entre faixas vizinhas, que ocorrem principalmente devido a diferenças sazonais e diárias nas condições de umidade da superfície.
Os dados de polarização são armazenados como números digitais de 16 bits (DN).
Os valores de DN podem ser convertidos em valores de gama zero em decibel (dB) usando a seguinte equação:
γ₀ = 10log₁₀(DN²) - 83,0 dB
Atenção:
Os valores de retroespalhamento podem variar significativamente de um caminho para outro em áreas florestais de alta latitude. Isso ocorre devido à mudança na intensidade de retroespalhamento causada pelo congelamento das árvores no inverno.
