| Abstract;The authors studied the applicability of multi temporal SAR data obtained from JERS-1 SAR for monitoring of the change of tropical rain forest conditions due to plantation development. The test site was the southern part of Sumatra Island, Indonesia. Total nine JERS-1 SAR from 1992 to 1998 were analyzed together with three optical data, MOS-1 MESSR in 1990 and SPOT HRV in 1997 and 1998. The result of this study verified that the backscatter change in multi temporal JERS-1 SAR data can be used effectively to monitor the process of plantation development and deforestation in the tropical rain forest.
