This document discusses a method for colorizing single-polarization SAR data and integrating it into optical image mosaics. It applies texture filters to the SAR data to classify surfaces into categories like urban, forest, and water. Representative colors are then selected for each class from a reference image to create a color lookup table. The colored SAR data can be overlaid on optical mosaics to support thematic mapping, especially in areas obscured by clouds in optical data. Examples show TerraSAR-X stripmap and spotlight data colorized and overlaid on SPOT and Google Earth images for areas in Cameroon and Germany.
