Abstract
In this paper human settlement detection using SAR data is addressed, with stress on informal settlement analysis. We show that, even using coarse spatial resolution SAR data, it is possible to discriminate between structured and unstructured settlements. In particular, two approaches are proposed: a supervised procedure to exploit spatial patterns and backscatter intensity to discriminate between structured and unstructured kinds of human settlements, and an unsupervised procedure to detect human settlements in large area SAR images.
