Abstract

This paper describes the effectiveness of the fusion of SAR images and Optical images based on the use of wavelet transform. Through the tests for differences between wavelet transform technique and other fusion technique, we explain the strength and weakness about each technique. We have studied on the improvement of classification accuracy using the fusion of SAR images and Optical images. In this paper, we focus on the classification of urban area which results from combining Spot Pan, Spot MS and SAR images.
