Properly monitoring the world’s buildings and infrastructure is essential for safety.
Our satellite monitoring service offers the fastest route towards the enhancement of the displacement monitoring routines
We found a way to advance the inspection process through the use of satellites — giving our clients a visual overview of the health and safety of their buildings and infrastructure.
is a web based platform developed to visualize and interact with Persistent Scatterer Interferometry data.
Corner reflectors (CRs) are used for InSAR quality assessment, InSAR datum connection and geodetic integration.
Use
Corner reflectors with precisely known positions of their effective phase centers, are deployed on monitored sites to obtain reliable measurement points with displacement time series over areas with few natural coherent scatterers.
Design
We use double back-flipped square trihedral (DBST) corner reflectors for quality control. Reflectors are ideally mounted on the drilled pillars above the ground, to minimise the undesired secondary ground reflections. The central plate of the DBST reflectors includes the mounting console for precise co-location with a geodetic GNSS antenna.
Co-location
Radar reflectors and continuous GNSS measurements enable the establishment of a reliable network of reference points, facilitate the transformation of multiple InSAR measurements from different acquisition geometries into a terrestrial reference frame, and validate the quality of InSAR measurements.
