Polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (POLSAR) images are widely used for aerial and spatial image applications, such as terrain classification, target detection, etc. However, only monochrome gray images can be derived from SAR data due to the imaging mechanisms of SAR, which limits image presentation and visual appeal. In this paper, we proposed a new approach to colorization for POLSAR images. The basic principle is that pixels with the same scattering characteristics should have similar colors. To achieve this, the algorithm first utilizes the Cloude and Pottier's decomposition to separate pixels into eight scattering categories, and then unsupervised classification is applied for further iteration. Colorization is performed in Lab color space using the classification result, which assigns a color to each class according to the self-defined entropy-alpha color map. In this semiautomatic method, an operator only needs to define a color map, and then the indicated colors are automatically transferred to produce a fully colorized image. The effectiveness of this algorithm is demonstrated by a JPL/AIRSAR POLSAR image.
