  • Abstract
    Preliminary findings on the use of combined ERS and RADARSAT SAR images in rice crops monitoring is described in this paper. ERS and RADARSAT (S6 mode) images of the Mekong river delta during the rice seasons in 1997 were used. Different growth stages of rice can be identified in the ERS-RADARSAT false colour composite images
