Monitoring and characterizing natural hazards with satellite InSAR imagery
Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) provides an all-weather imaging capability for measuring ground-surface deformation and inferring changes in land surface characteristics. InSAR enables scientists to monitor and characterize hazards posed by volcanic, seismic, and hydrogeologic processes, by landslides and wildfires, and by human activities such as mining and fluid extraction or...
متن کاملAssessment and Prediction of Natural Hazards from Satellite Imagery.
Since 2000, there have been a number of spaceborne satellites that have changed the way we assess and predict natural hazards. These satellites are able to quantify physical geographic phenomena associated with the movements of the earth's surface (earthquakes, mass movements), water (floods, tsunamis, storms), and fire (wildfires). Most of these satellites contain active or passive sensors tha...
متن کاملDigital elevation model generation from satellite interferometric synthetic aperture radar
An accurate digital elevation model (DEM) is a critical data set for characterizing the natural landscape, monitoring natural hazards, and georeferencing satellite imagery. The ideal interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) configuration for DEM production is a single-pass two-antenna system. Repeat-pass single-antenna satellite InSAR imagery, however, also can be used to produce useful...
متن کاملLand Use Monitoring using Satellite Imagery and Its Relationship with Drought in the Doiraj Watershed of Eilam Province
Today, there are many factors affecting watersheds, consequently changing natural ecosystems succession. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of drought events on land use changes at Doiraj Watershed of Ilam Province from 1996 to 2015. For this purpose, Landsat satellite images were used for land use change monitoring and Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) was applied for dro...
متن کاملFrontiers of Radar Remote Sensing
all-weather, dayand-night imaging capability for mapping the Earth’s surface. Through interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technique, radar imagery can be used to map Earth surface characteristics and measure land surface deformation at an unprecedented precision and spatial resolution. This article introduces the basics of radar and InSAR imaging, summarizes the revolution of InSAR...
