Spaceborne SAR remote sensing and tree architectural growth model are new tools under development and validation, towards the retrieval and mapping of forest parameters through a GIS. On one hand, L-band SAR data (SIR-C) is useful for the retrieval of some forest parameters such as age and woody biomass; on the other hand, tree growth model allow to retrieve many forest parameters at the tree level, and to simulate a 3D view by image synthesis both at the tree and landscape levels. The coupling through a GIS of these tools is to drive the growth model by parameters obtained using SAR data or other sources. A methodology is proposed and illustrated on a simple forest ecosystem, that is a Austrian pine forest over hilly terrain in South Franc...
