Basic parameters

The upper part of Fanjiaping landslide is very active. Deformation rate can reach 5cm/y. Time series deformation indicated Fanjiaping was moving during the

whole period.

Fanjiaping landslide motion detected by SBAS

Deformation rate estimated by PS-InSAR was unreasonably less than 1 cm/year compared with GPS.

Underestimation happened with sparse PS points identified. Shuping landslide is a south-north oriented slope.

Shuping landslide motion observed by PS-InSAR

– Based on SAR image matching at subpixel-level accuracy – Make use of pixels with high amplitude values, e.g. CRs – Avoid noisy measurements in vegetated areas – Without phase unwrapping – Can measure displacements at centimeter-level accuracy in

both line-of-sight direction (LOS) and azimuth directions * LOS ≈ vertical and east-west directions * Azimuth ≈ north-south direction

Suitable for measuring large displacements.

Point-like targets offset tracking (PTOT)

Corner Reflectors (CRs)

14 CRs erected on the Shuping landslide, the other 4 CRs in the surrounding

Displacements measured in azimuth and range directions can be as high as 1 meter and 0.8 meters respectively.

Observations coincide with the conclusions in Wang et al. 2008 that the eastern part of Shuping landslide is more active. Moving towards north direction into the Yangtze River.

PT extraction

1. Only the most stable PT in each transection line along the linear infrastructure were analysed to convert into a one-dimensional problem.

2. One-dimensional phase unwrapping was carried out upon the PTs selected.

3. Interferograms were grouped into a DEM subset and a deformation subset to accurately separate the topographic phase and deformation signal from each other.

Conclusion & Discussion

•Validations using leveling data showed the effectiveness of mapping large-area ground subsidence with TerraSAR-X data stacks covering Shanghai.

•Stability analyses of road networks in Shanghai revealed uneven spatial pattern of deformation with the Zhangjiang and Situan identified as two focus areas of subsidence.

•Driving force analysis suggested two major impact factors for road network subsidence: urbanization construction (e.g. subway tunnel excavation), seasonal temperature variation.

Conclusion & Discussion (1)

•Phase-based analyses of high-resolution SAR data can detect subtle surface deformation of slow-moving landslides in the Three Gorges area. By contrast, point-like target offset tracking is more suitable for mapping large deformation of fast-moving landslides.

•3D displacement vectors can be reconstructed by joint analysis of multi-orbit multi-aspect InSAR/offset tracking measurements.

•Experimental results in NE China suggest that deformation along linear infrastructures (expressway, railway, etc.) can be retrieved from time-series high-resolution SAR data using an improved SBAS method.
