Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) has been widely used for landslide studies in recent years. This paper investigated the spatial patterns of PSI point targets and landslide occurrences in the Arno River basin in Central Italy. The main purpose is to analyze whether spatial patterns of Persistent Scatterers (PS) can be recognized as indicators of landslide occurrences throughout the who...

Karstic terrains are usually dominated by aquifer systems and/or underground cavities. Overexploitation of groundwater in such areas often induces land subsidence and sometimes causes sinkholes. The Cheria basin Algeria suffers from severe issues, this phenomenon has been increasing recent years due to population expansion uncontrolled exploitation. This work uses GPS data persistent scatterer ...

Abstract The paper presents the results of terrain subsidence monitoring in Poland’s Upper Silesian Coal Basin (USCB) mining area using Differential Interferometry Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) and Persistent Scatterer (PSI). study accounts for almost three million inhabitants where which started 19th century, has produced severe damage to buildings urban infrastructures past years. analysi...

Abstract The definition of landslide hazard is a step-like procedure that encompasses the quantification its spatial and temporal attributes, i.e., reliable susceptibility detailed analysis recurrence. However, available information often incomplete, fragmented unsuitable for quantitative analysis. Nevertheless, evaluation has key role in implementation risk mitigation policies an effort should...

Many coastal cities have undertaken reclamation projects to satisfy the land demands of rapid urbanization. However, the foundations of reclaimed land are susceptible to settlement and can have undesirable environmental impacts that could adversely affect these dense, populated areas. In the case of international airports built on reclaimed areas especially, regional-scale deformation must be m...

The damage to pipeline infrastructures caused by reactive soils has been a critical challenge for asset owners. Sustainable backfilling materials have recently gained interest stabilize highly zones as pre-emptive approach towards sustainability. In this study, two adjacent sections of sewer trench in Melbourne, Australia were backfilled with blends 100% recycled aggregates. sites monitored gro...

In recent times, satellite-based remote sensing has a growing role in archaeology and inherently the cultural heritage management process. This paper demonstrates potential usefulness of satellite imagery for documentation, mapping, monitoring, in-depth analysis archaeological sites located urban landscapes. The study focuses on assessment monitoring Alba Iulia, which is one Romanian cities wit...

Globally, major cities are experiencing fast settlement growth, which threatens the equilibrium of socio-ecosystems. In Pakistan, Abbottabad city in particular is urban growth. The main source daily water usage for population these types groundwater (tube–wells). Excessive pumping and high need ground local community affecting subsurface sustainability. this study, persistent scatterer interfer...
