3.1.SAR = Synthetic Aperture RADAR (Radio Detection And Ranging). SAR is a sensor able to generate high resolution images
Allows the observation of the Earth surface in 2D
It is an active system (illuminate the area of interest with microwaves) independant of solar illumination
Allows measurement in day and night.
High penetration of Cloud cover

3.4.Satellite InSAR ~ Conditions for Measuring Motion ~
To measure motion, the following must apply:• The time delay must be appropriate to the scale of motion to be measured (i.e., the motion must obey the Nyquist sampling theorem), and
• The motion must have enough spatial cohesiveness that the coherence is high enough.
• Plus one of the three conditions needed to remove the topographic component of the phase:
• The baseline must be small enough that the topography component can be neglected.
• An accurate DEM must be used to remove the topographic component, orThree passes must be used to remove the topographic component

4.1.InSAR techniques4.1.2-Differential InSAR (DifSAR):-
Differential InSAR (DifSAR) maps subtle topographic change (surface motion) that has occurred during the period spanned by two satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data acquisitions.
Key features:•Continuous field of motion across coherent areas•Detect moton ranging from centimetres-to-metres•Centimetric accuracy•Map and monitor large areas (1000s of km2)•Map historical events using archive SAR data (as far back as 1992)•Monitor sites at regular intervals by programming new SAR data acquisitionsDifSAR is widely applied within the following markets sectors: Oil & gas, mining, buildings & infrastructure, water & environment, sustinable energy and geohazards & risk.

4.1.2.-Persistant Scatterer InSAR (PSI)Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) is an advanced differential interferometric technique which involves the processing large volumes of multi-temporal Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data to identify networks of persistently reflecting surface feature (e.g. buildings, bridges, infrastructure and rocky outcrops), against which precise (millimetric) measurements of motion can be made.Fugro NPA's PSI processing and products have been validated and certified by the European Space Agency.
Key features:100s to 1000s of Persistent Scatterer (PS) measurement points per km2A 'virtual GPS' network with individual PS motion time seriesMap subtle change; detect motion rates of millimetres to decimetres per yearMillimetric accuracyMap and monitor specific sites and large areas (1000s of km2)Map historical events using archive SAR data (as far back as 1992)Monitor sites at regular intervals by programming new SAR data acquisitionsPSI is widely applied within the following markets sectors: Oil & gas, mining, buildings & infrastructure, water & environment, sustinable energy, utilities and geohazards & risk.

4.1.3-Corner Reflector InSAR (CRInSAR)Networks of Corner Reflectors (CRs) are deployed in regions of low natural radar response (e.g. rural environments) and across specific features (e.g. landslides, dams, embankments, underground water reservoirs), to provide a persistent response to incoming radar signals from overpassing Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites.Key features:•Point specific motion measurement network•Detect motion ranging from millimetres to decimetres•Map and monitor specific structures or areas characterised by low natural radar response•Supplement and/or expand existing Persistent Scatterer (PS) networks

Assuming a supply of data, the ideal strategy might be as follows: Continuous acquisition of data over the area at every opportunity to enable PSInSAR as soon as possible. Installation of CRs around sensitive developments or faults. Measurements against these can be made after only two post installation acquisitions. The acquisition strategy allows for the generation of a conventional interferogram should an earthquake of large magnitude strike.
If we assume an existing 30-scene + archive of SAR data, and a promised continuity of repeat acquisitions, then the InSAR technique to apply is determined by a) area to be monitored,b) ground velocity, andc) distribution of existing scatterers. Consider the table below.
