Insar atmospheric delays compensation: case study in Tenerife island

Publication Year :: 2017
Abstract: Differential Interferometry SAR (DInSAR) is an advanced technique to retrieve ground deformation in the geoscience community. Atmospheric Phase Screen (APS) is one of the largest challenges limiting the application of DInSAR especially in mountainous areas. In this paper we propose an approach based on an empirical linear model for compensating stratified atmospheric phase delay in differential interferograms. Compared with conventional empirical linear model, the influence of turbulent APS is taken into consideration in our work. With this, the modelled stratified APS is more accurate. We test our algorithm using Envisat dataset and Sentinel dataset over Tenerife island (Spain). The performance of the approach is compared with Global Atmospheric Models (GAMs).<br />Peer Reviewed<br />Postprint (published version)
