Abstract

The authors carry out tests with two readily available automated matching algorithms in their application to (a) Magellan SAR stereo images, and (b) ERS-1 and X-SAR real-simulated images. The match points are examined visually, and an accuracy analysis on Magellan data is performed by comparison with manual measurements
