This paper is focused on investigating the capabilities of SAR S-1 sensors for burned area mapping. To this aim, we analyzed S-1 data focusing on a fire that occurred on August 10th, 2017, in a protected natural site. An unsupervised classification, using a k-mean machine learning algorithm, was carried out, and the choice of an adequate number of clusters was guided by the calculation of the silhouette score. The ΔNBR index calculated from optical S-2 based images was used to evaluate the burned area delimitation accuracy. The fire covered around 38.51 km2 and also affected areas outside the boundaries of the reserve. S-1 based outputs successfully matched the S-2 burnt mapping.

Abstract
This paper is focused on investigating the capabilities of SAR S-1 sensors for burned area mapping. To this aim, we analyzed S-1 data focusing on a fire that occurred on August 10th, 2017, in a protected natural site. An unsupervised classification, using a k-mean machine learning algorithm, was carried out, and the choice of an adequate number of clusters was guided by the calculation of the silhouette score. The ΔNBR index calculated from optical S-2 based images was used to evaluate the burned area delimitation accuracy. The fire covered around 38.51 km2 and also affected areas outside the boundaries of the reserve. S-1 based outputs successfully matched the S-2 burnt mapping.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
