Joint International Online Training Programme on “Primer on Interferometric SAR Remote Sensing”

Organised By:CEOS WGCapD

Duration: 07th July 2025 to 18th July 2025

Description:This joint course on ‘primer on interferometric SAR (InSAR) remote sensing’ is designed for the international participants. The major emphasis of the course will on the InSAR based assessment of ground deformations. The ground surface deformation (GSD) is affected by geometrical changes on the earth’s surface due to various geological, topographical, geomorphological, hydrological, and anthropogenic activities. These geometrical changes resulted into landslide, land subsidence, glacier melting, volcanic eruption, earthquake, plate tectonics etc.). Every year a huge amount of loss of property and lives takes place across the world. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to monitor such GSDs in a robust way. Modern space based SAR systems acquire the remote sensing images globally in all weather and illumination conditions. InSAR and its recent developments give the opportunity to detect and monitor GSD in long time-series with great accuracy (up to few mm) over large areas.
