This is accomplished via a novel change detection method that has been formulated, in a data fusion perspective, in terms of multitemporal supervised classification. The availability of very high resolution images provided by last-generation satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and optical sensors makes this analysis promising from an application perspective and simultaneously challenging from a processing viewpoint. Indeed, pursuing such a goal requires the development of novel methodologies able to exploit the large amount of detailed information provided by this type of data. To take advantage of the temporal and spatial information associated with such images, the proposed method integrates multisensor, multisource, and contextual information. Markov random field modeling is adopted here to integrate the spatial context and the temporal correlation associated with images acquired at different dates. Moreover, the adoption of a region-based approach allows for the characterization of the geometrical structures in the images through multiple segmentation maps at different scales and times. The performances of the proposed approach are evaluated on multisensor pairs of COSMO-SkyMed SAR and Pl\u00e9iades optical images acquired over J\u00e9r\u00e9mie, in the aftermath of and during the three years after Hurricane Matthew. The effectiveness of the change detection results is analyzed both quantitatively, through the computation of accuracy measures on a test set, and qualitatively, by visual inspection of the classification maps. The robustness of the proposed method with respect to different algorithmic choices is also assessed, and the detected changes are discussed in relation to the recovery endeavors in the area and ground-truth data collected in the field in April 2019.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13173509","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,6]],"date-time":"2021-09-06T13:18:26Z","timestamp":1630934306000},"page":"3509","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Monitoring the Recovery after 2016 Hurricane Matthew in Haiti via Markovian Multitemporal Region-Based Modeling"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Andrea","family":"De Giorgi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical, Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering and Naval Architecture (DITEN), University of Genoa, Via all\u2019Opera Pia 11a, I-16145 Genoa, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3861-7447","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David","family":"Solarna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical, Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering and Naval Architecture (DITEN), University of Genoa, Via all\u2019Opera Pia 11a, I-16145 Genoa, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3796-2938","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gabriele","family":"Moser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical, Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering and Naval Architecture (DITEN), University of Genoa, Via all\u2019Opera Pia 11a, I-16145 Genoa, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7242-4473","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Deodato","family":"Tapete","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Italian Space Agency (ASI), Via del Politecnico, I-00133 Rome, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8134-1576","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francesca","family":"Cigna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Italian Space Agency (ASI), Via del Politecnico, I-00133 Rome, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8255-9312","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Giorgio","family":"Boni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil, Chemical, and Environmental Engineering (DICCA), University of Genoa, Via Montallegro 1, I-16145 Genoa, Italy"}]},{"given":"Roberto","family":"Rudari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CIMA Foundation, Via Magliotto 1, I-17100 Savona, Italy"}]},{"given":"Sebastiano Bruno","family":"Serpico","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical, Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering and Naval Architecture (DITEN), University of Genoa, Via all\u2019Opera Pia 11a, I-16145 Genoa, Italy"}]},{"given":"Anna Rita","family":"Pisani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Italian Space Agency (ASI), Via del Politecnico, I-00133 Rome, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4358-8903","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antonio","family":"Montuori","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Italian Space Agency (ASI), Via del Politecnico, I-00133 Rome, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3573-9051","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Simona","family":"Zoffoli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Italian Space Agency (ASI), Via del Politecnico, I-00133 Rome, Italy"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2021, June 28).
