Comprehensive land surface motion monitoring based on satellite radar data
The solution uses satellite radar Earth observation (EO) data to provide comprehensive land surface motion monitoring that can be used to assess the health of tropical peatland and how they respond to land use change, management and ecosystem rehabilitation measures. Its ground motion maps also provide geospatial intelligence on issues related to long term environmental land motion including mining, geoenergy, urbanisation and groundwater management. The product benefits a range of industries including land and property, infrastructure owners and operators, utilities, geoenergy government and regulators and environmental management. It underpins more effective allocation and management of public and private sector resources for land/peatland restoration and management and provides a monitoring system to assist in reduction in rates of land motion and greenhouse gas emissions. Using the novel Intermittent Small Baseline Subset (ISBAS) InSAR technique, anywhere can be remotely monitored without the need for ground control, including remote, forested and urban areas.
