Abstract

Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is a remote sensing technique capable of measuring ground surface deformation with subcentimeter precision and spatial resolution in tensofmeters over a large region. This paper reviews the basics of InSAR technique, illustrates how InSAR works, and discusses issues related to InSAR deformation mapping.
