Identification of Geometric Distortions in Sentinel-1 Imagery Over the Territory of Serbia Caused by the Slant Observation Geometry of Sar Systems

Year: 2026

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This study systematically identifies and analyzes geometric distortions, specifically layover and shadow effects, in Sentinel-1 imagery across the Republic of Serbia. Тhe research quantifies these distortions caused by slant observation geometry. The primary contribution is a unique, publicly available spatial dataset representing distortion distribution for both ascending and descending orbits at a national scale. The analysis evaluates the magnitude of these effects across diverse topographic profiles, establishing a quantitative benchmark for assessing Sentinel-1 data usability.
