Terrain motion measurements over European urban areas using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry

In this contribution Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) processings done in the framework of the FP7 Project PanGEO over a number of European sites are presented. After a short introduction of the PanGEO project, we present the data used, the processing done and the results of the PSI analysis. The influence of specifics as the presence of large non-urban areas, significant topography, seasonal effects, special deformation characteristics, and the size of the available data stacks on the processing are highlighted.
