Modelling SAR imaging of urban areas

Kuruoglu E. E., Zerubia J.

Satellite imagery  Physical sciences and engineering 

Satellite imagery has found vast applications in a wide spectrum of areas including agriculture (eg detection of crop types), urbanization (tracking the development of urban areas), cartography (eg detection of rivers, road networks), warfare (eg detection of targets, surveying), etc. This heavy demand on satellite imagery applications lead to the development of imaging systems that are alternative to optical imagery. In particular, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery in the last two decades has become increasingly popular as some of its properties are favorable to optical imagery. SAR imagery can operate regardless of weather conditions and SAR image resolution is independent of sensor heigh
