Abstract:
This paper seeks to demonstrate that radar-based remote sensing techniques are as effective as conventional geotechnical ones for geo-hazard assessment and mitigation. Concretely, this work encourages the proper combination of differential synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry (DInSAR) results, using high-resolution X-band SAR data coming from orbital and ground-based SAR sensors, for the efficient monitoring of slow-moving landslides.
