Speckle

Synthèse

Creates a raster object by removing speckle and smoothing out noise in radar datasets, while retaining edges and sharp features in the image.

Discussion

For more information about how this function works, see the Speckle raster function.

The referenced raster dataset for the raster object is temporary. To make it permanent, you can call the raster object's save method.

ParamètreExplicationType de données
raster

The input raster.

Raster
filter_type

Specifies the filter type that will be used in the smoothing algorithm to remove speckle noise.

  • LeeThe Lee filter will be used, which reduces the speckle noise by applying a spatial filter to each pixel in an image and filters the data based on local statistics calculated within a square window.
  • EnhancedLeeThe EnhancedLee filter will be used, which is a refined version of the Lee filter that reduces the speckle noise effectively by preserving image sharpness and detail. This filter requires the damp_factor and nlooks arguments to be set.
  • FrostThe Frost filter will be used, which reduces speckle noise and preserves important image features at the edges with an exponentially damped circularly symmetric filter that uses local statistics within individual filter windows. This filter requires the damp_factor argument to be set.
  • KuanThe Kuan filter will be used, which follows a similar filtering process to the Lee filter in reducing speckle noise. This filter also applies a spatial filter to each pixel in an image, filtering the data based on local statistics of the centered pixel value that is calculated using the neighboring pixels. The Kuan filter requires the nlooks argument to be set, which controls image smoothing and estimates noise variance.
  • Gamma MAPA Bayesian analysis and gamma distribution filter will be used to reduce the speckle noise. This filter is useful for reducing speckle while preserving edges.
  • Refined LeeA spatial filter will be applied to selected pixels, based on local statistics, to reduce the speckle noise. This filter uses a nonsquare filter window to match the direction of edges. It is useful for reducing speckle while preserving edges.

(La valeur par défaut est Lee)

String
filter_size

Specifies the size of the filter window in pixels.

  • 3x3The pixel size of the filter window is 3 by 3.
  • 5x5The pixel size of the filter window is 5 by 5.
  • 7x7The pixel size of the filter window is 7 by 7.
  • 9x9The pixel size of the filter window is 9 by 9.
  • 11x11The pixel size of the filter window is 11 by 11.

(La valeur par défaut est 3x3)

String
noise_model

Specifies the type of noise that is reducing the quality of the radar image. This argument is only valid when the filter_type argument is set to Lee.

  • MultiplicativeRandom signal noise that is multiplied into the relevant signal during capture or transmission is reducing the quality of the image.
  • AdditiveRandom signal noise that is added into the relevant signal during capture or transmission is reducing the quality of the image.
  • AdditiveAndMultiplicativeA combination of both noise models is reducing the quality of the image.

(La valeur par défaut est Multiplicative)

String
noise_var

The noise variance of the radar image.

This argument is only valid when the filter_type argument is set to Lee and the noise_model argument is set to Additive or AdditiveAndMultiplicative.

(La valeur par défaut est None)

Double
additive_noise_mean

The mean value of additive noise. A larger noise mean value will produce less smoothing, while a smaller value results in more smoothing.

This argument is only valid when the filter_type argument is set to Lee and the noise_model argument is set to Additive or AdditiveAndMultiplicative.

(La valeur par défaut est None)

Double
multiplicative_noise_mean

The mean value of multiplicative noise. A larger noise mean value will produce less smoothing, while a smaller value results in more smoothing.

This argument is only valid when the filter_type argument is set to Lee and the noise_model argument is set to Multiplicative or AdditiveAndMultiplicative.

(La valeur par défaut est 1)

Double
nlooks

The number of looks of the image, which controls image smoothing and estimates noise variance. A smaller value results in more smoothing, while a larger value retains more image features.

This argument is only valid when the filter_type argument is set to Lee and the noise_model argument is set to Multiplicative, or when the filter_type argument is set to Kuan.

(La valeur par défaut est 1)

Integer
damp_factor

The extent of exponential damping effect on filtering. A larger damping value preserves edges better but smooths less, while a smaller value produces more smoothing.

This parameter is only valid when the filter_type argument is set to EnhancedLee or Frost.

(La valeur par défaut est None)

Double

Speckle example

Applies the Lee filter to Sentinel 1 radar imagery.

                                              additive_noise_mean=0, multiplicative_noise_mean=1)
