5 What does "InSAR technology" mean? InSAR and satellites First measurement Second measurement (afterwards) Results In terferometric S ynthetic A perture R adar = = Superimposition of waves to detect differences High resolution radar system Travel phase between ground and sensor gives distance with millimetric precision Difference between two measurements indicates ground movement over time Ground movement is measured with radar satellites, comparing the satellite distance from the Earth s surface at different moments in time. Page 5

7 Ground motion analysis in the past and monitoring in the future Historical analysis with data in the past (Satellites: ERS/Envisat, ALOS) Monitoring in the future ? (Satellites: TerraSAR-X, CosmoSkymed) Analysis of ground motion since 1992 Detects ground motion in the past, e.g. Natural subsidence in area of interest before cavern development Ground motion measurement with new data Regular updates every year (or more frequently) Ground motion studies can be conducted in the past and also with new data.

9 Introduction to PSI technology What is a PS? Understanding the construction phase constructing the resolution cell of the SAR S = Pixel σ(k). e i2π R(k) λ Page 9
10 Introduction to PSI technology Definition of Persistent Scatterer Definition PS A PS is a target that keeps the reflection properties along the acquisitions. Its radar response is characterised by a reduced noise level allowing reliable phase measurements in repeat passes phase [rad] acquisitions d] phase [rad acquisitions Temporal changes of the scatterers, different look angle, volume scattering and other factors originate noisy phase contributions inthe resolution cell Page 10
11 Why not all targets exhibit PS behavior? Effect of the signal carrier frequency Different penetration of the radar signal could occur in function of the observed terrain nature and the wavelength. Depending on the ground layer the reflection properties can be kept in repeat passes X-band C-band L-band Page 11
12 Advancements in InSAR technology X-Band satellites: Redundancy of satellites Japanese Space Agency (JAPEX) JERS-1 ALOS L-BAND European Space Agency (ESA) ERS-1 ERS-2 Envisat Sentinel-1 C-BAND Seosar Canadian Space Agency (CSA) Radarsat-1 Radarsat-2 German Space Agency (DLR) EADS Infoterra GmbH TerraSAR-X Tandem-X TerraSAR-X 2 X-BAND ItalianSpace Agency (ASI) Cosmo SKYMED New generation X-band satellites are a satellite constellation: Working with several similar satellites mitigates the risk of satellite failure. Page 12
13 Why not all targets exhibit PS behavior? Effect of the resolution in repeat passes Temporal and geometric decorrelation have a lower impact on high resolution data. The probability of having a PS like pixel becomes higher when increasing the resolution Slant-range res 12m Slant-range res 3m With more resolution the measurement can be obtained with more detail With more resolution only 1 pixel of 4 will loss the measurement objects on ground in SLC 1 objects on ground in SLC 2..

14 Measurement points Natural Points and Reflectors Natural Points Artificial Corner Reflectors Existing Points Roofs, metallic structures that reflect the radar signal Possibility to conduct historical studies Aluminum Trihedrals Areas where there are not many natural points (areas with vegetation, snow, ongoing construction ) Allow for densification of measurements While areas with infrastructure can be measured with natural points, areas with little infrastructure require reflectors in order to guarantee measurement points.

16 Agenda Introduction to InSAR technology Different radarinterferometric techniques Validation of InSAR technology Conclusions Page 16
17 Validation Project ( ) Alkmaar : rural area of forest, dunes, beaches and villages. Amsterdam : urban area including autonomous and spatially uncorrelated terrain-motion over the 9.5km route of the new N-S metro line. Page 17
18 Validation Project ( ) Outcome: Process and product validation confirmed quality of Terrafirma products Process comparison: Estimated standard deviations for each OSP were mm/year for velocities, mm for time series, and m for topographic corrections. Comparison with groundtruth Alkmaar: Direct velocity validation against the leveling shows RMS error ranges from mm/year for ERS, and mm/year for Envisat. Direct time-series validation shows RMS error ranges from mm for ERS and mm for Envisat. Amsterdam: The absolute standard deviation of the double difference in velocity ranges from 1.0 to 1.2mm/year. The average RMS errors of single deformation measurements in the time series range from 4.2 to 5.5mm. Page 18

22 Combining different datasets Definition of the different acquisition geometries ASC/DESC The satellite can overpass the area of interest in a descending or ascending mode The incidence angle is different depending on the mode Ascending track Descending track Duration of complete orbit: 100 min Earth rotation A D Images are acquired from very different point of view. The Scatterers response are completely different Page 22
23 Combining different datasets Definition of the different acquisition geometries different tracks Envisat can vary its incidence angle in 7 positions (I1 to I7) therefore the same area of interest can be "viewed" from several tracks I7 I6 I5 I4 I3 I2 I1 Flight direction Flight direction 100 km I1 I2 I3 I4 I5 I6 I7 485 km 100 km Page 23
24 Combining different datasets Review of the benefits in PSI processing PSI measurements are in Instrument geometry. Not N/S and E/W oriented PSI analysis are done independently within every track MAJOR BENEFITS: increasing the PS density redundancy to the estimations D HIGLIGHTS: a reduced number of targets supports a multi-track analysis the detected deformation magnitudes and patterns could slightly differ Decomposition of the East-West and the Up-Down components A Example of combination of 4 tracks with ENVISAT Page 24
