Abstract

SAR coherence can be exploited for applications of repeated surveys like digital elevation map generation, improvement of ground range resolution, measurement of small changes of the terrain. Results of the Bonn experiment are presented. The main goal of the experiment was the validation of differential interferometry technique for small terrain motions estimation. However, many other interesting results, a few of them not yet interpreted, have been obtained
