| Abstract | The fusion of optical and radar remote sensing data offers the opportunity to combine complementary sensors with different features. Most common application for image fusion is the classification, for example, the generation of a land use map. In case of radar data it is known to be difficult because of the speckle and variation in scattering. Nethertheless, in tropical regions most areas are cloud covered. Thus in this investigation it was checked how far a land use classification of the region of Banda Aceh (Indonesia) can be improved by the fusion of optical with SAR remote sensing data. In the first step it is attempted to investigate and analyse several methods of data fusion by using optical and SAR data in a pixel-based approach by additional knowledge-based information. In the second step it is intended, in an object-based approach also by using additional knowledge-based information, to accomplish the actual land use classification on the test area. In the third step the results have to be verified and improved by a local ground check. The end product is an updated analogue and digital land use map of Banda Aceh und region. The digital map is to be integrated in a Geographic Information System (GIS). |
