Using Permanent Scatterer Insar to Monitor Land Subsidence along High Speed Railway- the First Experiment in China
We present in this contribution the results of the first experiment to monitor land subsidence along JingJin High Speed Railway (JingJin HSR), which connects Beijing city and Tianjin city and is the first high speed railway in China, by using the Permanent Scatterer InSAR (PSI). Since the length of the railway is usually beyond the standard scenes coverage of the ongoing radar satellite, i.e. E...
متن کاملLand Cover Mapping Analysis and Urban Growth Modelling Using Remote Sensing Techniques in Greater Cairo Region - Egypt
This study modeled the urban growth in the Greater Cairo Region (GCR), one of the fastest growing mega cities in the world, using remote sensing data and ancillary data. Three land use land cover (LULC) maps (1984, 2003 and 2014) were produced from satellite images by using Support Vector Machines (SVM). Then, land cover changes were detected by applying a high level mapping technique that comb...
متن کاملApplication of Persistent Scatterer Interferometry for Land Subsidence Monitoring in Sydney, Australia using ENVISAT ASAR Data
The aim of this research is to investigate the terrain deformation in the metropolitan area of Sydney using multiple satellite radar imagery. The persistent scatterer interferometry (PSI) strategy developed at Geodesy and Earth Observing Systems Group (GEOS) of the University of New South Wales (UNSW) is used to map the land deformation in Sydney with C-band ENVISAT radar images in this study. ...
متن کاملRadar Interferometric Analysis of Mining Induced Surface Subsidence Using Permanent Scatterer
We apply the permanent scatterer (PS) technique to interferometric ERS SAR observations to analyse the surface subsidence induced by hard coal mining activities at the ”Prosper-Haniel” mine (Ruhr region, Germany). Underground mining causes extensive subsidence of serveral meters and typically high subsidence rates at the earth‘s surface. We show that this approach is applicable for the measurem...
متن کاملLooking beyond legality: understanding the context of female sex workers in greater Cairo, Egypt.
Data on demographic, social and behavioural characteristics of female sex workers in greater Cairo are very scarce. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 431 randomly selected sex workers after mapping of sites where they gather. Data collection was performed by direct interviewing using a questionnaire sheet covering sociodemographic data and sexual history with paying and non-paying part...
