Title
Cosmo-SkyMed AO projects - exploitation of fractal scattering models for Cosmo-SkyMed images interpretation.
Abstract
In this paper the analysis of fractal dimension maps extracted from Cosmo-SkyMed amplitude-only SAR data is considered. The focus is on the Somma-Vesuvius volcanic complex, whose study allows to draw significant comments on the behavior of the fractal maps. In particular, the dependence of the fractal maps on geometrical and geomorphologic characteristics of the imaged surface is investigated. Preliminary results regarding the different behavior of the fractal dimension evaluated on the Gran Cono and on the Mt. Somma are presented.
