Performance of TerraSAR-X for urban subsidence monitoring: Murcia case study
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an analysis of the performance of TerraSAR-X for subsidence monitoring in urban areas. The city of Murcia has been selected as a test-site due to its high deformation rate and the set of extensometers deployed along the city that provide validation data. The obtained results have been compared with those obtained from ERS/ENVISAT data belonging to the same period and validated with the in-situ measurements.

Terrasar X-band Insar Observations in Urban Areas
SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) has ability to detect subtle surface movement at the scale of millimeter to centimeter. TerraSAR-X is new radar satellite operated at X-band, multi polarization, and multi beam mode. Compared with C-band or L-band SAR, the X-band system inherently suffers from more temporal decorrelation due to short wavelength (3.1 cm), but is more sensitive to surface deformatio...
متن کاملAnalyzing Terrasar-x and Cosmo-skymed High-resolution Sar Data of Urban Areas
The new high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite systems offer new possibilities for urban remote sensing. COSMOSkyMed and TerraSAR-X operate in X-band and both can deliver data with a spatial resolution of up to one meter. High-resolution SAR data is particularly useful for post-disaster damage assessment and monitoring, because SAR systems operate (almost) weather independent....
متن کاملAssessment of radar interferometry performance for ground subsidence monitoring due to underground mining
This paper describes the results from the recently launched SAR satellites for the purpose of subsidence monitoring over underground coal mine sites in the state of New South Wales, Australia, using differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DInSAR) technique. The quality of the mine subsidence monitoring results is mainly constrained by noise due to the spatial and temporal decorre...

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) have shown numerous applications for subsidence monitoring. In the past 10 years, the Persistent Scatterer InSAR (PSI) and Small BAseline Subset (SBAS) approaches were developed to overcome the problem of decorrelation and atmospheric effects, which are common in interferograms. H...
