Title
Deformation Parameter Estimation in Low Coherence Areas Using a Multisatellite InSAR Approach
Abstract
Persistent scatterer (PS) interferometry and small baseline subset algorithms can be used to estimate time series of surface deformation with high precision. In areas with low coherence, and in the absence of sufficient PS, the estimation of reliable phase information can be cumbersome. Here, we report a successful approach for estimating deformation at pasture on drained peat soils using the integrated use of data from several satellite missions, a parametric deformation model with a generalized least squares method, and spatial averaging over statistically homogeneous pixels. The developed methodology is analyzed and applied on a test site in The Netherlands, where we report local subsidence rates and periodic signal over the peat and pasture areas.
