A consortium of Norwegian institutions has used Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellite data in combination with the Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) remote sensing technique to map ground movements in the country. The Geological Survey of Norway (NGU), the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE) and the Norwegian Space Centre (NSC) make results freely accessible through InSAR Norway, a service launched in November 2018. The service aims to produce ground deformation measurements in the country and improve accessibility of InSAR results for public and commercial users.
InSAR is used in remote sensing and geodesy, the science of measuring the geometric shape of the Earth. It compares two or more...

The module SAR Tomography introduces the advanced technique of combining multiple radar images from several viewing angles into a new dimension of information. Although tomogoraphic measuring systems and applications are recently in an experimental stage, this technology has a large potential to enhance the information content of radar data. This module gives an overview of the basics, limitations, mathematical foundations, advanced techniques and recent case studies.
