, Chini, M., Emery, W.J. (2009) A
neural network approach using multi-scale textural metrics from very
high-resolution panchromatic imagery for urban land-use classification. Remote
Sensing of Environment (113-6): 1276-1292
The paper

Damage Assessment of Buildings Using VHR Optical and SAR Imagery. IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, (48-5): 2403-2420
The paper proposes
a method used to detect buildings destroyed in an earthquake using pre-event
VHR optical and post-event detected VHR SAR imagery. Utilizes QuickBird, WorldView-1, TerraSAR-X
and COSMO-SkyMed SAR data
