A Simple Normalized Difference Approach to Burnt Area Mapping Using Multi-Polarisation C-Band SAR

In fire-prone ecosystems, periodic fires are vital for ecosystem functioning. Fire managers seek to promote the optimal fire regime by managing fire season and frequency requiring detailed information on the extent and date of previous burns. This paper investigates a Normalised Difference α-Angle (...
