Block Adjustment without GCPs for Chinese Spaceborne SAR GF-3 Imagery
The Gaofen-3 (GF-3) satellite is the first C-band multi-polarization synthetic aperture radar (SAR) with the ability of high-accuracy mapping in China.However, the Ground Control Points (GCPs) are essential to ensure the accuracy of mapping for GF-3 SAR imagery at present.In this paper, we analyze the error sources that affect the geometric process
