Abstract

In this study, we describe the technique for deriving a digital elevation model (DEM) from a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) stereo image pair and apply it to an image pair over "Kwanak-san" in Seoul, Korea. This paper contains brief discussion of the use of stereo SAR to derive topographic data, description of the overall structure of the stereo SAR processing system, description of the site and SAR data used for the evaluation and the source of validation data, results of the stereo SAR processing, analysis and evaluation of their accuracy against map data, and finally summarizes the main highlights of the method used, comments and recommendations on its future implementation.
