Cosmo-Skymed and Sentinel-1 Dinsar Processing for Ground Instability Monitoring in Indonesia

Indonesia is periodically affected by severe volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, which are geologically coupled to the convergence of the Australian tectonic plate beneath the Sunda Plate. Multi-temporal SAR interferometry (MTI) can be used to support studying and modelling of terrain movements. This work is aimed at performing an analysis of ground displacements over Indonesian sites through MTI techniques. Two test sites in Sumatra and Java have been selected according to the availability of archived SAR data, GNSS networks, and geological data. Both COSMO-SkyMed (CSK) and Senitnel-1 data-sets have been processed through MTI algorithms. The derived displacement maps have been interpreted according to the available geological and geophysical information.
