Intensive and large-scale underground coal mining has caused geological disasters such as local ground subsidence, cracks collapse in the Datong coalfield, China, inducing serious threats to residents. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) capability of surface deformation detection with high precision vast mountainous areas. DInSAR, stacking-InSAR SBAS-InSAR are commonly used InSAR-...

The paper explores the potential of satellite advanced differential synthetic aperture radar interferometry (A-DInSAR) technique for identification impending slope failure. advantages and limitations InSAR in monitoring pre-failure landslide behaviour are addressed five different case histories back-analysed using data acquired by missions: Montescaglioso (2013, Italy), Scillato (2015, Bingham ...

We show the results of application of Differential SAR Interferometry to the MW 7.4, August 17, 1999, Izmit earthquake, Western Turkey. The differential interferogram is obtained using an interferometric ERS2 ascending pair with a time interval of 35 days (August 13th September 17th). The fringe pattern clearly defines the coseismic displacement field extended in an area of about 100 km N-S and...

Coal fires have been found to be a serious problem worldwide in coal mining reserves. Coal fires burn valuable coal reserves and lead to severe environmental degradation of the region. Moreover, coal fires can result in massive surface displacements due to the reduction in volume of the burning coal and can cause thermal effects in the adjacent rock mass particularly cracks and fissures. The Wu...
