Abstract
Measures to select despeckling filter to remove speckles from TerraSAR-X image have been evaluated for an area having varied land cover classes. Gamma, Lee, Sigma, Mean, Median and Frost filters were applied in different window sizes. These images are visually compared and four parameters viz. Noise Mean Value (NMV), Noise Variance (NV), Mean Square Difference (MSD) and Equivalent Numbers of Looks (ENL) are calculated. These parameters were well implemented to compare results of various despeckling filters on TerraSAR-X image recorded in high resolution spot mode and checked for the constraints. Median 7x7 filter was found most suitable among other filters to despeckle the images.
