Firstly, the importance of the pixel spacing, the size of the boxes selected for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image partitioning and the image texture in terms of homogeneities are discussed by considering their influence on the azimuth cut-off (λc) estimation. Secondly, a quality control analysis of the reliability of λc is carried out by evaluating the distance between the autocorrelation functions (ACF) and their correspondent fittings. This analysis points out the importance of filtering out the unreliable and unfeasible λc values in order to improve the wind speed estimation. The quality control procedure is based on a x2 test, applied on a large Sentinel-1A dataset. The soundness of the test is verified by an increment in terms of correlation between λc estimations and wind speed values. This approach is, then, applied under high wind regimes, i.e., tropical cyclones Peer reviewed 2024-09-25T12:21:59Z 2024-09-25T12:21:59Z 2021 artículo http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 Journal of Geodesy and Geoinformation Science 4(1): 30-37 (2021) 2096-5990 CEX2019-000928-S http://hdl.handle.net/10261/368556 10.11947/j.JGGS.2021.0104 2096-1650 http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100000844 http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100006280 en Publisher's version https://doi.org/10.11947/j.JGGS.2021.0104 Sí open Surveying and Mapping Press Co.
