Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images features clustering using Fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm

Remote sensing applications such as Ecological monitoring, Disaster monitoring, Volcanic monitoring, surveillance and reconnaissance requires broad range imaginary data with very high resolution. Data captured under different times such as day or night and under different weather conditions poses ad...
