The results of SAR ALOS/PALSAR interferometric pairs coregistration precision analysis by means of PHOTOMOD Radar and SARscape software packages are presented. It was shown, that, as well as in case of SAR COSMO-SkyMed data, mean coherence values, received by means of PHOTOMOD Radar software package, are higher than the similar values received by means of SARscape software package.
Results of additional special experimental researches are discussed. It was shown: the cause of difference between mean coherence values is connected by that in software package PHOTOMOD Radar at coherence value calculation for multilooked images the initial images data are used, that is incorrect.
Keywords: SAR, interferometric processing, coregistration precision, coherence, DEM, COSMO-SkyMed, ALOS/PALSAR, PHOTOMOD Radar, SARscape
