Proof and Application of Discriminating Ocean Oil Spills and Seawater Based on Polarization Ratio Using Quad-Polarization Synthetic Aperture Radar
2023
Overview
This paper focuses on the proof and application of discriminating between oil spills and seawater (including the “look-alikes”, named low wind areas) based on the polarization ratio. A new relative polarization ratio (PRr) method is proposed, which is based on the difference between the scattering mechanism and the dielectric constant for oil spills compared to that of seawater. The case study found that (1) PRr numerically amplifies the contrast between oil spills and seawater, reduces the difference between low wind areas and ordinary seawater, and exhibits better details of the image; (2) the threshold method based on Euclidean distance can obtain the highest classification overall accuracy within the allowable error range, and can be widely used in the study of different incidence angles and environmental conditions; and (3) the identification of oil spills and seawater by the proposed methods can largely avoid the misjudgment of low wind areas as oil spills. Considering visual interpretation as the reference ‘ground truth’, the overall classification accuracy of all cases is more than 95%; only the edge of the diffuse thin oil slick and oil–water mixture is difficult to identify. This method can serve as an effective supplement to existing oil spill detection methods.
