  • Abstract
    Three approaches using optical and microwave remotely sensed data were considered for soil moisture assessment. The first was based on NOAA/AVHRR images and meteorological data, the second on synergy of NOAA and ERS-2.SAR data, and the third one on the ERS-2 SAR and JERS SAR data. For the test area the classification of crop type has been carried out using Thematic Mapper images
