Abstract :
This paper presents a processing chain to combine a CosmoSkyMed (CSK) image and a TerraSAR-X (TSX) image. After registration and calibration steps, processing at different levels is studied: pixel level for the detection of stable features and joint filtering, primitive level for stability analysis and object level (like roads) for joint interpretation.
