Automated matching experiments with different kinds of SAR imagery

The authors carry out tests with two readily available automated matching algorithms in their application to (a) Magellan SAR stereo images, and (b) ERS-1 and X-SAR real-simulated images. The match points are examined visually, and an accuracy analysis on Magellan data is performed by comparison with manual measurements.
