InSAR Monitoring of Landslides affecting strategic Transportation Corridors

چکیده
In this paper, we present the results of several case studies using InSAR techniques from high resolution RADARSAT to monitor active landslides triggered by earthquakes and other geomorphic processes. Our results have shown that our InSAR results were used that facilitate mitigation efforts along strategic transportation and energy corridors as well as reconstruction efforts in earthquake damaged areas in Haiti.

Geological and Geohazard Applications of Radarsat-2
In this paper, we will present the results of several case studies focusing on RADARSAT-2 InSAR monitoring of several different types of landslides and the uses of enhanced RADARSAT-2 polarimetric composites for surficial geological and terrain mapping in Canada. InSAR techniques are increasingly being used in slope stability assessment [1, 2 3]. Our research has shown that both differential In...
متن کاملInSAR Monitoring of High Risk Geohazard Areas using RADARSAT
In this paper, we report on the results of InSAR monitoring of several high-risk GeohazardsLandslides, Earthquakes and Volcanoesareas using RADARSAT 1&2 images. InSAR techniques are increasingly being used for geohazard assessment. Our research has shown that differential InSAR and coherent target monitoring techniques with installed corner reflectors are used to monitor landslide activity alon...
متن کاملInSAR processing for the recognition of landslides
Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (InSAR) is an established method for the detection and monitoring of earth surface processes. This approach has been most successful where the observed area fulfills specific requirements, such as sufficient backscattering, flat slope gradients or very slow changes of vegetation. We investigated the capability of two different InSAR techniques and achieve...
متن کاملInSAR techniques and applications for monitoring landslides and subsidence
Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) methods and applications for mapping and monitoring displacements on mountain slopes and subsidence in urban areas were investigated in the EC project MUSCL (Monitoring Urban Subsidence, Cavities and Landslides by means of remote sensing) using various techniques. The area-extended differential InSAR technique was applied for mapping slow slope m...
متن کاملAssessment of Landslide Pre-Failure Monitoring and Forecasting Using Satellite SAR Interferometry
In this work, the ability of advanced satellite interferometry to monitor pre-failure landslide behaviours and the potential application of this technique to Failure Forecasting Methods (FFMs) are analysed. Several limits affect the ability of the technique to monitor a landslide process, especially during the pre-failure phase (tertiary creep). In this study, two of the major limitations affec...
