摘要:Persistent scatterer interferometry (PSI) has matured to an established method for detection of large-scale and small-scale deformation phenomena in urban areas and of man-made infrastructure. Deformation regimes originating from oil, gas, or water extraction, storage of gas underground, CO2 sequestration, loading of dams and dykes, and mining activities are prominent examples for investigations that have been carried out successfully applying the PSI technique to ERS or ENVISAT data stacks.
