Mine Subsidence Monitoring: a Comparison among Envisat, Ers and Jers-1

چکیده
This paper reports the progress of the Envisat CAL/VAL Project No 1078. Subsidence in an underground coal mining region southwest of Sydney, Australia, has been monitored using ERS and JERS-1. Seven Envisat images have been acquired in various imaging modes from both ascending and descending passes over the same mining region. More Envisat images have been scheduled and will be acquired in the future. This paper demonstrates that the mine subsidence have been measured by utilising differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DInSAR) technique with the Cand L-band SAR images from ERS and JERS-1 satellites. Tandem differential InSAR analysis has revealed 1 cm subsidence in 24 hours with a resolution of +/3 mm. The RMS error for DInSAR measured subsidence against ground survey data is 1.4 cm using the JERS-1 repeat-pass images.

Application of Repeat-pass DInSAR and GIS for Underground Mine Subsidence Monitoring
This research used both ERS and JERS-1 images to investigate the feasibility of differential radar interferometry (DInSAR) for mine subsidence monitoring in the state of New South Wales, Australia. DInSAR results are analysed and validated with the aid of Geographic Information System (GIS) tools. The drawbacks of using interferometric measurements for mine subsidence monitoring are discussed. ...

متن کاملSatellite radar interferometry for mine subsidence monitoring
Australia is one of the world’s leading mineral resource extraction and exporting nations. Underground mining can cause ground surface displacement, which may in turn have serious impacts on the environment or man-built facilities. This paper describes the results of a study into the feasibility of surface subsidence (caused by underground coal mining) monitoring using differential interferomet...
متن کاملMine Subsidence Monitoring by JERS-1 SAR Interferometry
Differential SAR Interferometry (D-InSAR) is an effective tool in monitoring land subsidence because of its greater coverage area and better resolution of height change. A series of Japanese Earth Resources Satallite-1 (JERS-1) images from 1992 to 1998 has been used in monitoring the mine subsidence in the test site of this study, one of the important coal mining areas in China. D-InSAR procedu...
