Title: Urban Monitoring Change Detection for Multi-sensor Satellite Imagery. This project aims to deliver a change detection framework using RADARSAT-2 SAR and EO imagery with applications to urban monitoring. Change detection is particularly important in urban environments because of its potential to assess disasters, urban planning, land management, affecting millions of people. An annual database of changes pertaining to the city of Calgary will be explored to map the city's development trajectory and assess the impact of development efforts. Object-based, post-classification change detection methods will be developed for EO, SAR urban monitoring. Deep learning is proposed for enhanced object recognition and fusion of multi-sensor imagery.
