Long-term prognosis of soil dump consolidation based on satellite radar interferometry (InSAR) data
Satellite radar interferometry is state-of-the-art method of remote exploration of the Earth. Data from the sensors of European satellite constellation Sentinel-1 (ESA, 2020), which systematically captures radar images of the world's land at fixed intervals and from several directions, was used to demonstrate the capability of using radar satellite interferometry in retrospective evaluation of earth's surface movements on abandoned and dump sites being normally outside the scope of regular monitoring. The results show how these data and method facilitate forecasting when forecasting the consolidation of dump surface, whether in the line of the selected profile or in the zones of interest.
