- the technology described above is realized by selecting or generating image data indicating a steady state from image data accumulated in the past and detecting changes in the image to be analyzed.
- a SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) image is a complex image that has reflection intensity information and phase information of the irradiated microwave for each pixel.
- Coherent change detection technology is one of the change detection technologies for complex images.
- Coherent change detection technology is a technology that can detect minute changes from the steady state based on the level of the complex correlation coefficient (coherence), which indicates the degree of similarity between images.
- Coherence which is a complex correlation coefficient between SAR images, is an index that indicates "correlation of intensity and phase in a local region" between SAR images.
- Fig. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between the coherence value and the correlation of reflection intensity and phase between SAR images. As shown in FIG. 1, when the coherence value is high, both the similarity of reflection intensity and the similarity of phase between SAR images are high. That is, there is little change between SAR images.
- the coherence value is an index that is more sensitive to changes in the phase than to changes in the reflection intensity of the reflected wave. As shown in FIG. 1, the coherence value is lower when the phase similarity is lower than the reflection intensity similarity. Coherent change detection technology can also catch reflector swapping.
- the problem to be solved by the present invention is to generate a complex image showing a steady state suitable for SAR image analysis.
- SAR images observed by SAR satellites orbiting the earth have different shooting conditions (for example, the position of the satellite at the time of observation) for each observation. Therefore, even when observing the same steady state, the SAR images obtained for each observation are different. In particular, in areas with buildings with height differences, such as urban areas, the phase information changes greatly for each observation. Therefore, if a complex image showing a steady state according to each imaging condition cannot be generated, changes in the image due to differences in the imaging conditions will be interpreted as changes that occur within the area to be analyzed, which can lead to false detections. .
- FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a SAR satellite photographing a building.
- SAR satellites are artificial satellites equipped with SAR.
- Observations 1 and 2 shown in FIG. 2 have different shooting conditions. Observation 1 and observation 2 differ in the amount of phase change that depends on the height of the building. Therefore, even in the same steady state, the observed SAR images have different phases.
- FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the layover phenomenon that occurs in SAR images.
- a two-dimensional image (SAR image) of overlapping buildings and houses is captured, as shown in Figure 3.
- a region where the building and the house overlap in the two-dimensional image shown in FIG. 3 is a layover region where signals received from a plurality of reflectors overlap.
- a layover area is an area in which it is difficult to extract information on individual buildings because information on multiple buildings overlaps.
- the phase of the SAR image obtained for each observation also depends on the reflection intensity of the overlapping buildings. Since the degree of overlapping of buildings differs under different imaging conditions, the observed SAR images have different phases even in the same steady state.
- phase information other than coherence values there is a method of extracting phase information from SAR images as real values and using the obtained real values to obtain correlation.
