| Abstract | In the framework of 3D visualization and real-time rendering of large remote sensing image databases, several signal processing techniques are presented and evaluated to filter/enhance SAR Digital Elevation Models (DEMs). Through the SRTM DEM, the interest of InSAR data for such applications is illustrated. A non stationary bayesian filter is presented to remove noise and small artefacts which pervade the SAR DEM while preserving structures and information content. Results obtained are very good, nevertheless large artefacts cannot be filtered and some artefacts remain. Therefore, image information have to be inserted to produce more realistic views. This second step is done by using a segmentation algorithm on the image data. By a topology analysis, the extracted objects are classified/stored in a tree structure to describe the topologic relations between the objects and reflect their interdependencies. An interactive learning procedure is done through a Graphical User Interface to link the signal classes to the semantic ones, i.e. to include human knowledge in the system. The selected information in form of objets are merged/fused in the DEM by assigning regularisation constraints. |
