This paper discussed and analyzed results of different classification algorithms for land use classification in arid and semiarid areas using CBERS-1 image, which in case of our study is Shihezi Municipality, Xinjiang Province. Three types of classifiers are included in our experiment, including the Maximum Likelihood classifier, BP neural network classifier and Fuzzy-ARTMAP neural network classifier. The classification results showed that the classification accuracy of Fuzzy-ARTMAP was the best among three classifiers, increased by 10.69% and 6.84% than Maximum likelihood and BP neural network, respectively. Meanwhile, the result also confirmed the practicability of CBERS-1 image in land use survey.

China is one of the countries in which flood occurs most frequently in the world and with the current economic growth; flood disaster causes more and more economic losses. Chinese government pays more attention to flood monitoring and assessment by space technology. Since1983, NOAA(AVHRR), Landsat-TM, LANDSAT-ETM+, JERS-1, SPOT, ERS-2, Radarsat-1, CBERS-1, Envisat have been used for flood monitoring and assessment. Due to the bad weather conditions during flood, microwave remote sensing is the major tools for flood monitoring. Envisat is one of the best satellite with powerful SAR. Its application for flood monitoring has been studied and its near real time(NRT) application can be realized on the basis of real-time delivery of image. During the 2005, 2006 and 2007 flood seasons, over the 31 NRT flood monitoring based on Envisat, had been carried out in Yangtze, Songua, Huaihe, pearl river basin. The result shows that Envisat SAR is very useful data source for flood disaster monitoring and assessment.
