A DTSD model based on PS-InSAR surface multi-type deformation monitoring of villages in the mining area.

Evaluating building damage in mining areas using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) has inherent challenges. This work presents a Delaunay Triangulation of Surface Deformation (DTSD) model that utilizes Permanent Scatter InSAR to analyze various types of deformations in villages. This model created a network of irregular triangles using Delaunay triangulation and PS points as the input. The calculation involved determining the inclination of triangular edges and the torsion of spatial Bezier curves fitted by these edges. The PS points' maximum inclination and curvature values were identified by solving over-determined equations. Results from a slurry injection mine in Huaibei, China, indicate that the various types of deformations in the neighboring communities were below 8 %, and the buildings experienced minimal damage. The DTSD model offers a theoretical framework for monitoring and assessing various types of surface deformation and designing essential zones for building protection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
