During the interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR)-based ground displacement monitoring in mining areas, overlying land is mainly covered by low vegetation and arable land, which makes interferograms acquired InSAR techniques easily susceptible to decorrelation, resulting quantity density of highly coherent points (CPs) are not enough reflect spatial location spatio-temporal evolution ...

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) represents a very powerful tool to assess the health condition of buildings. In recent years, growing availability high-resolution SAR satellite images has made possible application multi-temporal Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (MT-InSAR) techniques for structural monitoring purposes, with high precision, low costs, timesaving, and possibility invest...

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry (InSAR) is performed using repeat-pass geometry. InSAR technique is used to estimate the topographic reconstruction of the earth surface. The main problem of the range-Doppler focusing technique is the nature of the two-dimensional SAR result, affected by the layover indetermination. In order to resolve this problem, a minimum of two sensor acquisit...

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a powerful technology for observing the Earth surface, especially for mapping the Earth's topography and deformations. InSAR measurements are however often significantly affected by the atmosphere as the radar signals propagate through the atmosphere whose state varies both in space and in time. Great efforts have been made in recent years to ...

Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) processing relies on phase unwrapping to convert interferometric phase to topographic height. Phase unwrapping is a di cult non-linear process that is still the subject of on-going research. Rather than processing the complete phase image to extract a digital elevation model (DEM), we use existing coarse DEMs as an integral part of the InSAR algo...

a r t i c l e i n f o Multi-temporal ALOS/PALSAR images are used to automatically investigate landslide activity over an area of ~ 200 km by ~ 350 km in northern California and southern Oregon. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) deformation images, InSAR coherence maps, SAR backscattering intensity images, and a DEM gradient map are combined to detect active landslides by setting ...
