Abstract

Remote sensing data from SAR and optical sensors provide complementary information, with each type of data being better suited for certain tasks. In this paper, the potential of using both types of data together for the monitoring of urban areas will be shown. This is illustrated using a dataset of very high resolution SAR and optical images of the city of Oslo (Norway), containing over three years of TerraSAR-X images acquired with different orbits and incidence angles, and aerial optical images that were photogrammetrically processed to obtain a DSM and a true ortho mosaic.
