Detection of surface subsidence using SAR SENTINEL 1A imagery and the DInSAR method – a case study of the Belchatow open pit mine, Central Poland

Open pit mining hazards monitoring is a crucial task. The paper focuses on the first analysis of surface subsidence in the open pit mining area obtained by Synthetic Aperture Radar active remote sensing technique. Presented methodology of Differential Interferometric SAR provides an excellent data s...
