  • Abstract
    In the context of sea and ocean monitoring from (single polarization) SAR images, an innovative approach in the handling of azimuth ambiguities is here described. The purpose of this paper is to provide a theoretical explanation of the method briefly presented at IGARSS 2013 [1], and suggest applications in coastal and maritime traffic monitoring. The work is developed in the context of the project funded by the Italian Space Agency1. COSMO-SkyMed images related to Ligurian Sea (Italy) represents the data set for experimentation.
