Abstract :
This paper describes detection and interpretation of temporal changes in an area of interest using coherent change detection in repeat-pass Synthetic Aperture Radar imagery, with the main goal of detecting subtle scene changes such as potential human activities. Possibilities of introducing knowledge sources in order to improve the final result are also presented.
