Sentinel-1 演算法
透過集合功能整理內容
你可以依據偏好儲存及分類內容。
Sentinel-1 是歐洲太空總署 (ESA) 在哥白尼計劃中執行的太空任務,由歐洲聯盟提供資金。Sentinel-1 會以各種偏振和解析度收集 C 波段合成孔徑雷達 (SAR) 圖像。由於雷達資料需要使用多種專用演算法才能取得經過校正的正射影像,因此本文件將說明在 Earth Engine 中預先處理 Sentinel-1 資料的相關資訊。
在上升和下降軌道期間,Sentinel-1 會使用多種不同的儀器設定、解析度和頻帶組合來收集資料。由於這種異質性,通常必須先將資料篩選為同質子集,才能開始處理。這項程序的詳細說明請參閱下方的「中繼資料和篩選功能」一節。
如要建立 Sentinel-1 資料的均質子集,通常需要使用中繼資料屬性篩選收集資料。用於篩選的常見中繼資料欄位包括以下屬性:
transmitterReceiverPolarisation
:['VV'], ['HH'], ['VV', 'VH'], 或 ['HH', 'HV']
instrumentMode
:'IW' (干涉寬幅)、'EW' (超寬幅) 或 'SM' (地圖條帶)。詳情請參閱這份參考資料。
orbitProperties_pass
:'ASCENDING' 或 'DESCENDING'
resolution_meters
:10、25 或 40
resolution
:'M' (中) 或 'H' (高)。詳情請參閱這份參考資料。
以下程式碼會依據 transmitterReceiverPolarisation
、instrumentMode
和 orbitProperties_pass
屬性篩選 Sentinel-1 集合,然後為地圖中顯示的多個觀測組合計算複合圖,以示範這些特性如何影響資料。

Sentinel-1 預先處理
Earth Engine 'COPERNICUS/S1_GRD'
Sentinel-1 ImageCollection
中的影像,包含以分貝 (dB) 為單位,經過處理的後向散射係數 (σ°) 的 Level-1 地面範圍偵測 (GRD) 場景。後向散射係數代表每單位地面面積的目標後向散射區域 (雷達橫截面)。由於這項數值可能會變化數個數量級,因此會轉換為 dB 為 10*log10σ°。這項測量值可評估輻射地形是否會將入射微波輻射偏向遠離 SAR 感應器 (dB < 0) 或朝向 SAR 感應器 (dB > 0)。這種散射行為取決於地形的物理特性,主要是地形元素的幾何圖形和電磁特性。
Earth Engine 會使用下列預先處理步驟 (由 Sentinel-1 工具箱實作),找出每個像素的後向散射係數:
- 套用軌道檔案
- 使用已復原的軌道檔案更新軌道中繼資料 (如果沒有可用的復原檔案,則使用精確的軌道檔案)。
- GRD 邊界雜訊移除
- 移除場景邊緣的低強度雜訊和無效資料。(截至 2018 年 1 月 12 日)
- 熱噪消除
- 移除子帶中的加成雜訊,以便在多帶擷取模式下,減少場景子帶之間的斷層。(這項作業無法套用至 2015 年 7 月前產生的圖片)
- 應用輻射校正值
- 使用 GRD 中繼資料中的感應器校正參數,計算回散強度。
- 地形修正 (正射校正)
資料集附註
- 由於山坡上有雜訊,因此未套用輻射地形平坦化功能。
- 無單位的回散係數會轉換為上述的 dB。
- 目前無法擷取 Sentinel-1 SLC 資料,因為 Earth Engine 無法在建立金字塔時平均複雜值,且不會遺失相位資訊。
- 系統不會擷取 GRD SM 素材資源,因為 S1 工具箱中的邊框雜訊移除作業中的
computeNoiseScalingFactor()
函式不支援 SM 模式。

Sentinel-1 collects C-band synthetic aperture\nradar (SAR) imagery at a variety of polarizations and resolutions. Since radar data\nrequires several specialized algorithms to obtain calibrated, orthorectified imagery,\nthis document describes pre-processing of Sentinel-1 data in Earth Engine.\n\nSentinel-1 data is collected with several different instrument configurations,\nresolutions, band combinations during both ascending and descending orbits. Because\nof this heterogeneity, it's usually necessary to filter the data down to a\nhomogeneous subset before starting processing. This process is outlined below in the\n[Metadata and Filtering](/earth-engine/guides/sentinel1#metadata-and-filtering) section.\n\nMetadata and Filtering\n----------------------\n\nTo create a homogeneous subset of Sentinel-1 data, it will usually be necessary to\nfilter the collection using metadata properties. The common metadata fields used for\nfiltering include these properties:\n\n1. `transmitterReceiverPolarisation`: \\['VV'\\], \\['HH'\\], \\['VV', 'VH'\\], or \\['HH', 'HV'\\]\n2. `instrumentMode`: 'IW' (Interferometric Wide Swath), 'EW' (Extra Wide Swath) or 'SM' (Strip Map). See [this\n reference](https://sentinel.esa.int/web/sentinel/user-guides/sentinel-1-sar/acquisition-modes) for details.\n3. `orbitProperties_pass`: 'ASCENDING' or 'DESCENDING'\n4. `resolution_meters`: 10, 25 or 40\n5. `resolution`: 'M' (medium) or 'H' (high). See [this\n reference](https://sentinel.esa.int/web/sentinel/user-guides/sentinel-1-sar/resolutions/level-1-ground-range-detected) for details.\n\nThe following code filters the Sentinel-1 collection by\n`transmitterReceiverPolarisation`, `instrumentMode`, and\n`orbitProperties_pass` properties, then calculates composites for several\nobservation combinations that are displayed in the map to demonstrate how these\ncharacteristics affect the data.\n\n### Code Editor (JavaScript)\n\n```javascript\n// Load the Sentinel-1 ImageCollection, filter to Jun-Sep 2020 observations.\nvar sentinel1 = ee.ImageCollection('COPERNICUS/S1_GRD')\n .filterDate('2020-06-01', '2020-10-01');\n\n// Filter the Sentinel-1 collection by metadata properties.\nvar vvVhIw = sentinel1\n // Filter to get images with VV and VH dual polarization.\n .filter(ee.Filter.listContains('transmitterReceiverPolarisation', 'VV'))\n .filter(ee.Filter.listContains('transmitterReceiverPolarisation', 'VH'))\n // Filter to get images collected in interferometric wide swath mode.\n .filter(ee.Filter.eq('instrumentMode', 'IW'));\n\n// Separate ascending and descending orbit images into distinct collections.\nvar vvVhIwAsc = vvVhIw.filter(\n ee.Filter.eq('orbitProperties_pass', 'ASCENDING'));\nvar vvVhIwDesc = vvVhIw.filter(\n ee.Filter.eq('orbitProperties_pass', 'DESCENDING'));\n\n// Calculate temporal means for various observations to use for visualization.\n// Mean VH ascending.\nvar vhIwAscMean = vvVhIwAsc.select('VH').mean();\n// Mean VH descending.\nvar vhIwDescMean = vvVhIwDesc.select('VH').mean();\n// Mean VV for combined ascending and descending image collections.\nvar vvIwAscDescMean = vvVhIwAsc.merge(vvVhIwDesc).select('VV').mean();\n// Mean VH for combined ascending and descending image collections.\nvar vhIwAscDescMean = vvVhIwAsc.merge(vvVhIwDesc).select('VH').mean();\n\n// Display the temporal means for various observations, compare them.\nMap.addLayer(vvIwAscDescMean, {min: -12, max: -4}, 'vvIwAscDescMean');\nMap.addLayer(vhIwAscDescMean, {min: -18, max: -10}, 'vhIwAscDescMean');\nMap.addLayer(vhIwAscMean, {min: -18, max: -10}, 'vhIwAscMean');\nMap.addLayer(vhIwDescMean, {min: -18, max: -10}, 'vhIwDescMean');\nMap.setCenter(-73.8719, 4.512, 9); // Bogota, Colombia\n```\nPython setup\n\nSee the [Python Environment](/earth-engine/guides/python_install) page for information on the Python API and using\n`geemap` for interactive development. \n\n```python\nimport ee\nimport geemap.core as geemap\n```\n\n### Colab (Python)\n\n```python\n# Load the Sentinel-1 ImageCollection, filter to Jun-Sep 2020 observations.\nsentinel_1 = ee.ImageCollection('COPERNICUS/S1_GRD').filterDate(\n '2020-06-01', '2020-10-01'\n)\n\n# Filter the Sentinel-1 collection by metadata properties.\nvv_vh_iw = (\n sentinel_1.filter(\n # Filter to get images with VV and VH dual polarization.\n ee.Filter.listContains('transmitterReceiverPolarisation', 'VV')\n )\n .filter(ee.Filter.listContains('transmitterReceiverPolarisation', 'VH'))\n .filter(\n # Filter to get images collected in interferometric wide swath mode.\n ee.Filter.eq('instrumentMode', 'IW')\n )\n)\n\n# Separate ascending and descending orbit images into distinct collections.\nvv_vh_iw_asc = vv_vh_iw.filter(\n ee.Filter.eq('orbitProperties_pass', 'ASCENDING')\n)\nvv_vh_iw_desc = vv_vh_iw.filter(\n ee.Filter.eq('orbitProperties_pass', 'DESCENDING')\n)\n\n# Calculate temporal means for various observations to use for visualization.\n# Mean VH ascending.\nvh_iw_asc_mean = vv_vh_iw_asc.select('VH').mean()\n# Mean VH descending.\nvh_iw_desc_mean = vv_vh_iw_desc.select('VH').mean()\n# Mean VV for combined ascending and descending image collections.\nvv_iw_asc_desc_mean = vv_vh_iw_asc.merge(vv_vh_iw_desc).select('VV').mean()\n# Mean VH for combined ascending and descending image collections.\nvh_iw_asc_desc_mean = vv_vh_iw_asc.merge(vv_vh_iw_desc).select('VH').mean()\n\n# Display the temporal means for various observations, compare them.\nm = geemap.Map()\nm.add_layer(vv_iw_asc_desc_mean, {'min': -12, 'max': -4}, 'vv_iw_asc_desc_mean')\nm.add_layer(\n vh_iw_asc_desc_mean, {'min': -18, 'max': -10}, 'vh_iw_asc_desc_mean'\n)\nm.add_layer(vh_iw_asc_mean, {'min': -18, 'max': -10}, 'vh_iw_asc_mean')\nm.add_layer(vh_iw_desc_mean, {'min': -18, 'max': -10}, 'vh_iw_desc_mean')\nm.set_center(-73.8719, 4.512, 9) # Bogota, Colombia\nm\n```\n\nSentinel-1 Preprocessing\n------------------------\n\nImagery in the Earth Engine `'COPERNICUS/S1_GRD'` Sentinel-1\n`ImageCollection` is consists of Level-1 Ground Range Detected\n(GRD) scenes processed to backscatter coefficient (σ°) in\ndecibels (dB). The backscatter coefficient represents\ntarget backscattering area (radar cross-section) per unit ground area. Because it can\nvary by several orders of magnitude, it is converted to dB as\n10\\*log~10~σ°. It measures whether the radiated terrain scatters\nthe incident microwave radiation preferentially away from the SAR sensor\ndB \\\u003c 0) or towards the SAR sensor dB \\\u003e 0). This scattering behavior depends on the\nphysical characteristics of the terrain, primarily the geometry of the terrain elements\nand their electromagnetic characteristics.\n\nEarth Engine uses the following preprocessing steps (as implemented by the\n[Sentinel-1 Toolbox](https://sentinel.esa.int/web/sentinel/toolboxes/sentinel-1))\nto derive the backscatter coefficient in each pixel:\n\n1. **Apply orbit file**\n - Updates orbit metadata with a restituted [orbit file](https://sentinel.esa.int/web/sentinel/technical-guides/sentinel-1-sar/pod/products-requirements) (or a precise orbit file if the restituted one is not available).\n2. **GRD border noise removal**\n - Removes low intensity noise and invalid data on scene edges. (As of January 12, 2018)\n3. **Thermal noise removal**\n - Removes additive noise in sub-swaths to help reduce discontinuities between sub-swaths for scenes in multi-swath acquisition modes. (This operation cannot be applied to images produced before July 2015)\n4. **Application of radiometric calibration values**\n - Computes backscatter intensity using sensor calibration parameters in the GRD metadata.\n5. **Terrain correction** (orthorectification)\n - Converts data from ground range geometry, which does not take terrain into account, to σ° using the [SRTM 30 meter DEM](/earth-engine/datasets/catalog/USGS_SRTMGL1_003) or the [ASTER DEM](https://asterweb.jpl.nasa.gov/gdem.asp) for high latitudes (greater than 60° or less than -60°).\n\nDataset Notes\n-------------\n\n- Radiometric Terrain Flattening is not being applied due to artifacts on mountain slopes.\n- The unitless backscatter coefficient is converted to dB as described above.\n- Sentinel-1 SLC data cannot currently be ingested, as Earth Engine does not support images with complex values due to inability to average them during pyramiding without losing phase information.\n- GRD SM assets are not ingested because the `computeNoiseScalingFactor()` function in the [border noise removal operation in the S1 toolbox](https://github.com/senbox-org/s1tbx/blob/master/s1tbx-op-calibration/src/main/java/org/esa/s1tbx/calibration/gpf/RemoveGRDBorderNoiseOp.java) does not support the SM mode."]]
