Abstract

This paper discusses the use of the along-track interferometric coherence as a radar observable with geophysical information rather than as a mere quality indicator. The use of dual co-polarized data to estimate the temporal decorrelation factor is explained, and preliminary results using TanDEM-X data are shown.
