DOP
(Degree of Polarization)ΒΆ
This functionality computes the 2D Barakat degree of polarization for dual polarimetric (HH | HV), (VV | VH) SAR data. The required input and the computed output are as follows:
input : input_c2_folder, window_size
output: dop_dp.bin
\[\text{DOP}_{dp}=\sqrt{1-\frac{4\times\text{det([C2])}}{\text{(Trace[C2])}^2}}\]
where, \(\text{[C2]}\) is co-variance matrix. Further details on the Barakat Degree of polarization can be found in [[10]](#10)
