Abstract :
An inversion scheme of vegetation parameters based on a simulated annealing algorithm using polarimetric SAR interferometry (Pol-InSAR) data is presented. Comparing the result of inversion with field measurement, it indicates that the inversion algorithm can obtain the height of vegetation with good accuracy.
