abstract = "The RADARSAT - SAR is a satellite of synthetic aperture that
operates in C-Band, microwave region. The main advantage of radar
systems is their capacity to collect data under any atmospheric
condition, penetrating cloud covers. In rainy periods in the
Brazilian Amazon, it is impossible to obtain images of optical
sensors. Therefore, it is necessary to turn to radar images to get
information about the dynamic of Amazon Reservoirs during such
periods. The purpose of this paper is to compare two different
classification approaches so as to classify aquatic plants,
?paliteiros? (dead tree trunks emerged) and open water (water
without emerged tree trunks and aquatic plants) in the
Tucuru{\'{\i}} reservoir (Para state). The dispersion of aquatic
plants will then be indirectly related to the proliferation of
malaria vectors in this region. Using RADARSAT ? C, LANDSAT5 ? TM
images and aerial photographs, to validate satellite data, the
best result obtained was by combining bands 3 (blue), 4 (green) of
TM sensor with C-Band (red) of RADARSAT.",
