Abstract

A complete study of the deformation pattern of Sicily is planned, in the framework of the project Â¿Extension and enhancement of the volcanic and seismic monitoring systems of SicilyÂ¿, according the agreement among the National Department of Civil Defense (DPC), Sicilian regional government and National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV). In this study, it is also planned a research aimed at implementing a new technique to integrate GPS vector displacements and DInSAR Interferograms.
