            Abstract : 
The availability of long sequences of SAR data virtually at any location on the Earth allows an extensive evaluation of land cover dynamics, which is a well-known extension to image pair multitemporal analysis. In this work we show the first results of an extensive evaluation of one among these ldquohypertemporalrdquo SAR sequences, with a stress on urban area monitoring.
