A new machine learning system can create height maps of urban environments from a single synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image, potentially accelerating disaster planning and response.

Aerospace engineers at the University of the Bundeswehr in Munich claim their SAR2Height framework is the first to provide complete—if not perfect—three-dimensional city maps from a single SAR satellite.

When an earthquake devastates a city, information can be in short supply. With basic services disrupted, it can difficult to assess how much damage occurred …
