Concepts for Monitoring and Surveillance using Space Borne SAR Systems
Abstract
In this paper we introduce a concept for monitoring and surveillance based on SAR imagery. A workflow for detection and characterization of changes is presented and discussed. SAR imagery is quite efficient for detection of changes, but less adequate for characterization of the changes. For this purpose context information can be used or detailed geographical information, derived from optical satellite imagery. We discuss two case studies on basis of the workflow, one with present-day satellite SAR data and one with high-resolution air borne SAR data resembling data from future high-resolution radar satellites.
