An application of the deterministic feature extraction approach to COSMO-SKyMed data
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the last years a new feature extraction approach from a single amplitude SAR image of urban areas has been introduced by the authors. In this paper they discuss the feasibility of this approach to detect changes in urban areas when natural hazards occur, with the aim to identify damaged or collapsed buildings by monitoring changes in the radiometric content of relevant SAR images. The test is performed on COSMO-SKyMed data provided before and after the earthquake that took place in the area around L’Aquila, Italy, in April 2009. First results are presented and discussed.
