Colour coded and geocoded DEMs of Burgan oil field. The colour coding is at an interval of 5 m. (a) derived from SRTM, (b) derived from the pair with least STD error ( 2.8 m) corresponding to the pair December 2007-July 2007. The day-difference in this case is 140 days and the ⊥ B is 280 m., (c) the weighted average image taking into account all the 43 DEMs. The values are in meters in the color coding.

Using different combinations of 29 Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) images, 43 Digital Elevations Models (DEM) were generated adopting SAR Interferometry (InSAR) technique. Due to sand movement in desert terrain, there is a poor phase correlation between different SAR images. Therefore, suitable methodology for generating DEMs of Kuwait des...

... the time series analysis approach as explained above, InSAR DEMs of Kuwait oil fields are compared with the DEM of SRTM at 90 m resolution as shown in Figure 6 and 7. Overall, there is a good agreement. However, DEM of SRTM shows more local undulations compared to repeat pass InSAR DEM which is difficult to explain. ...

SAR Interferometry (InSAR) is a technique to derive Digital Elevation Model (DEM) from at least two complex SAR images. The data are either taken simultaneously (single-pass mode) or sequentially (repeat-pass mode) by airborne or space-born sensors (carriers: plane, satellite, shuttle etc.). To date, one of the most important single-pass interferom...

This paper reports the repeat-pass interferometric SAR results of Gaofen-3, a Chinese civil SAR satellite, acquired in November 2016 and March 2017 from Ningbo area. With the spatial baseline about 600 m and time baseline 116 days, the coherence of the two images still achieve good enough to generate the digital elevation model (DEM). During the In...
