1 On the exploitation and validation of COSMO-SkyMed interferometric SAR data for digital terrain modelling and surface deformation analysis in extensive urban areas (ID: 1441) Project partners: Istituto di Metodologie per l'analisi Ambientale (IMAA CNR) Istituto per il Rilevamento Elettromagnetico dell'ambiente (IREA CNR) Istituto di Ricerca per la Protezione idrogeologica (IRPI CNR) Istituto Nazionale di Oceanografia e di Geofisica Sperimentale (OGS) DITS, Sapienza Universita' di Roma (UNIROMA1) Polo Regionale di Como, Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI) DITAG, Politecnico di Torino (POLITO) PI: Riccardo Lanari (IREA CNR) lanari.r@irea.cnr.it

2 Project objectives Exploitation of COSMO-Skymed (CSM) SAR constellation: for the analysis and validation of CSM DEM products (Objective 1) for surface deformation analysis over extensive urban areas (Objective 2)

3 Project Summary Project description and objectives Exploitation of COSMO-Skymed (CSM) SAR sensors: for the analysis and validation of CSM DEM products (Objective 1) for surface deformation analysis over extensive urban areas (Objective 2) Scientific Targets of the Project Objective 2 1 analysis investigation and validation of the capability of InSAR-based of the DInSAR CSM techniques DEMs by comparing applied to them CSM with reference data, in particular ones (particularly of the Small LIDAR). BAseline Subsequently Subset (SBAS) refocused approach, on radargrammetry; to reveal and monitor the temporal evolution of deformation phenomena affecting urbanized areas; DEM generation via fusion of different, given, DEMs with a comparable level of resolution and accuracy. analysis and validation of the computed CSM DInSAR products.

4 Test sites For DEM analysis and validation Como area Vesuvio area For SBAS-DInSAR analysis Colli Albani area Napoli area Roma area

5 CSM data availability For DEM analysis and validation 4 Spotlight images (2 asc+2 desc) on Como area Vesuvio area 1 Spotlight DEM of Colli Albani area For SBAS-DInSAR analysis 29 stripmap raw data (asc.) on Napoli area 21 stripmap raw data (asc.) on Roma area

6 CSM DEM catalogue product Spotlight COSMO-SkyMed DEM catalogue product (posting 3mx3m) relevant to the Colli Albani area (scene coverage 100Km 2 )

7 DEM analysis and validation: CSM vs SRTM N analysed points [m] bias [m] Comparison executed with software DEMANAL (developed by Prof. Jacobsen, Leibniz- University of Hannover)

8 DEM analysis and validation: CSM vs LIDAR N analysed points [m] bias [m] Comparison executed with software DEMANAL (developed by Prof. Jacobsen, Leibniz- University of Hannover)

9 Radargrammetry exploitation for DEM generation Radargrammetry: similar to photogrammetry; performs a 3D reconstruction based on the determination of the sensor-object stereo model, in which the object position is computed by the intersection of two radar rays with two different look angles Optimal geometric configurations: B/H ratio ranging from 0.25 to 2 is recommended to have a good stereo geometry Same-side to enable an easier image matching H B COSMO-SkyMed sensors operating in Spotlight mode (1 m resolution or better) can be well-suited for radargrammetry

12 Radargrammetric DEM analysis and validation TILE 1 TILE 2 Because a descending and an ascending data pair was available, two different digital models have been generated. The radargrammetric DEMs have been compared in sample areas (TILE 1 and TILE 2, for instance) with a reference LIDAR one (through the DEMANAL software). The accuracy, in terms of RMSE, has been computed at the 95% probability level (LE95) in order to leave out the outliers from the statistical evaluation. MEETING ASI COSMO-SkyMed Project 1441, March 2012, Roma

13 Radargrammetric DEM analysis and validation (2) A third product has been created by the merging the two opposite side points clouds identified through the radargrammetric analysis. Merging Accuracy around 10 m Accuracy around 8 m Accuracy around 6-7 m DEM Descending DEM Ascending Merged DEM The achieved accuracy of the radargrammetric DEMs is remarkable, suggesting a more extensive exploitation of this kind of products. MEETING ASI COSMO-SkyMed Project 1441, March 2012, Roma

14 CSM exploitation for DInSAR analysis over urban areas For this task the activities have been mostly focused on: - investigating of the capability of the advanced DInSAR techniques applied to the CSM data, in particular of the Small BAseline Subset (SBAS) approach, to reveal and monitor the temporal evolution of deformation phenomena affecting urbanized areas; - the analysis and validation of the computed CSM DInSAR products. MEETING ASI COSMO-SkyMed Project 1441, March 2012, Roma

15 SBAS-DInSAR algorithm: key idea Small Baseline Interferograms For each coherent pixel of the interferograms the deformation time series is computed by searching for an LS solution with a minimum norm constraint. For more information refer to: Berardino, P., Fornaro, G., Lanari, R., Sansosti, E., A new algorithm for surface deformation monitoring based on small baseline differential SAR interferograms. IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing 40 (11),
