Creation of New Global Land Cover Map with Map Integration
We present here a new approach to the development of a global land cover map. We combined three existing global land cover maps (MOD12, GLC2000, and UMD) based on the principle that the majority view prevails and validated the resulting map by using information collected as part of the Degree Confluence Project (DCP). We used field survey information gathered by DCP volunteers from 4211 worldwi...
متن کاملLand Subsidence Monitoring with Differential SAR Interferometry
The potential of differential SAR interferometry for land subsidence monitoring is reported on. The principle of the technique and the approach to be used on a specific case are first presented. Then significant results using SAR data from the ERS satellites for various sites in Germany, Mexico, and Italy, representing fast (mlyear) to slow (mmlyear) deformation velocities, are discussed. The S...
متن کاملLand Subsidence Measurement with Sar Interferometric Data
The paper focuses on the measurement of land subsidence and, more generally, of land deformation phenomena using the differential interferometric SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) technique (DInSAR). The paper begins with a concise description of the properties of the differential interferometric phase, which represents the information source for the estimation of the terrain deformation phenomena...
متن کاملGlobal Positioning System surveying to monitor land subsidence in Sacramento Valley, California, USA*
A subsidence research program began in 1985 to document the extent and magnitude of land subsidence in Sacramento Valley, California, an area of about 15 600 km, using Global Positioning System (GPS) surveying. A brief description of GPS surveying is followed by a summary of each of four surveys between 1985 and 1989. In addition to periodic conventional spirit levelling, an examination was mad...
