Remote sensing can be a good, effective and economic method to realise damage mapping consecutive to an extreme storm such as the one in December 1999 which severely hit Western Europe forests. Many recent studies tend to highlight this geomatic solution through high resolution optical and radar data. Here, the question asked is if higher resolution data give more efficient results. The French National Space Agency, CNES, has contracted SERTIT to evaluate both simulated data of the SPOT 5 satellite and VHR InSAR data, which are considered as a prototype for the future SAR sensor generation (2006-2010). Simulated data have been taken during airborne imaging campaigns in 2000 winter and spring periods, over the area of study covering the Haguenau Forest test site. This paper focuses on the assessment of Very High Resolution images (VHR), INSAR data. The results obtained confirm the interest of such data for damage detection in forestry areas.
