N2 - The registration of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and optical images is a challenging problem, notably in the perspective of the future launch of the Cosmo-SkyMed sensors in the framework of Orfeo program, which will provide high resolution images (below 1 meter). In this paper, we first present the registration of SAR and optical images using a perfect knowledge of the sensor parameters (position, speed, etc, but also the ground height) and we study the influence of a bad knowledge of these parameters. One then shows that feature extraction can be used to perform parameter refining. Finally, one points out that this SAR and optical image registration can be approximated by simple polynomial transformations.
