Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to present our studies about extraction of 3D information from radar images. Several radargrammetric methods allow DEM (digital elevation model) generation from SAR images and we take a special interest to stereoscopic method. The main idea is to match image stereo pairs, to create a disparity map from one image to the other and to compute elevation thanks to the incidences angles.
