Optical images in remote sensing are contaminated by cloud cover and bad weather conditions and are only available during the daytime. Whereas SAR images are completely cloud free, independent of weather conditions and can be acquired both during the day and at night. However, due to the speckle effect and side looking imaging mechanism of SAR images, they are not easily interpretable by untrained people. To address this issue, the present disclosure provides a method and system for LULC guided SAR visualization, wherein a GAN is trained to translate SAR images to optical images for visualization. A given SAR image is fed into a first generator of the GAN to obtain LULC map which is then concatenated with the SAR image and fed into a second generator of the GAN to generate an optical image. The LULC map provides semantic information required for generation of more realistic optical image.
