Abstract
Abstract Sentinel-1 C-band radar data were applied for the first time to determine a nuclear test, its underground H-bomb explosion location and the affected zone in North Korea on September 3, 2017. The nuclear test location was found according to line-of-sight displacement images via its maximum value. In this research, three scenes of Sentinel-1B data acquired in descending orbits, one after and two before the event (the nuclear test date), were used to detect the nuclear test location. The nuclear test location was found northeast of the Punggye-ri nuclear test site (8 km) with the following geographic coordinates: 41°11′1.85″N, 129°13′28.86″E. It was revealed that only a pair of Sentinel-1В radar scenes from August 17 and September 10 have been successfully applied to detect nuclear test zones.
期刊介绍：
Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing / Journal canadien de télédétection is a publication of the Canadian Aeronautics and Space Institute (CASI) and the official journal of the Canadian Remote Sensing Society (CRSS-SCT).
Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing provides a forum for the publication of scientific research and review articles. The journal publishes topics including sensor and algorithm development, image processing techniques and advances focused on a wide range of remote sensing applications including, but not restricted to; forestry and agriculture, ecology, hydrology and water resources, oceans and ice, geology, urban, atmosphere, and environmental science. Articles can cover local to global scales and can be directly relevant to the Canadian, or equally important, the international community. The international editorial board provides expertise in a wide range of remote sensing theory and applications.
