  • Abstract
    In this paper, we propose a methodology to classify surface roughness in agricultural fields with multipolarisation C-band SAR data. This information can help constraining the inversion of the Integrate Equation Model for soil moisture retrieving. Also, it could support annual surveys on agricultural practices.
