Abstract
In this paper we investigate the use of SAR and multispectral sensors on board of the ENVISAT-1 satellite for urban remote sensing applications. We are interested mainly on the mapping capabilities of these two sensors and provide results for urban land use extraction using ASAR data and urban area definition using MERIS bands
