InSAR/Evidence
Method evidence record

InSAR

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a radar remote sensing technique that measures millimeter-scale ground surface deformation by analyzing the phase difference between radar images acquired from slightly different orbital positions. Pioneered by Gabriel, Goldstein, and Zebker in 1989, InSAR has become essential for earthquake rupture characterization, volcanic monitoring, landslide detection, and subsidence quantification.
