Ten Years of TerraSAR-X—Scientific ResultsThis special issue is a collection of papers addressing the scientific utilization of data acquired in the course of the TerraSAR-X mission. The articles deal with the mission itself, the accuracy of the products, with differential interferometry, and with applications in the domains cryosphere, oceans, wetlands, and urban areas. This editorial summarizes the content.

This article presents an investigation of ground movement measurements based on a combination of TerraSAR-X and Sentinel-1 data, in opposite tracks, aiming to detect ground de-formation of the remaining dikes of Germano mine, after the Fundão dam collapse. The differential interferometry technique SBAS (Small Baseline Subset) was applied to obtain the deformation of the surface in different Line of Sight (LoS), in order to carry out the vector decomposition and generate the deformation measurements in the vertical and horizontal directions. A set of 37 single-look complex (SLC) images of TerraSAR-X (TSX), acquired during the period from 19 February 2016 to 15 May 2017, and 37 SLC images of Sentinel-1, acquired from 8 February 2016 to 15 May 2017, were used to perform this investigation. For the TerraSAR-X interferometric processing, a coherence threshold of 40%, 4 looks in range and 2 looks in azimuth, 1200 m of atmospheric filter, and 10 % of max normal baseline of the critical wer...

Terrasar-X Dinsar for Land Deformation Detection in Jakarta Urban Area, Indonesia2013 •
The X-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) onboard the TerraSAR-X satellite is useful for land subsidence detection and monitoring, since the sensor provides high spatial resolution data with a relatively short repetition cycle of 11 days. Jakarta is one of the largest cities in the world with population more 10 million as of 2011. The area has been suffering from significant effects of land subsidence that causes damages to public facilities, buildings, and other public and private properties. In this work, we exploit the capability of TerraSAR-X for detecting land subsidence in Jakarta during a four year period between 2010 and 2013 using differential interferometry SAR (DInSAR) technique. Our analysis reveals that two northern areas in the city exhibit clear indications of land subsidence varying from 8.5 to 17.5 cm/year, mostly caused by intensive human activities in addition to the vulnerability due to geological structures of these areas.

SAR Interferometry (InSAR) is a technique to derive D igital Elevation Model (DEM) from at least two comp lex SAR images. The data are either taken simultaneously (single-pass m ode) or sequentially (repeat-pass mode) by airborne r space-born sensors (carriers: plane, satellite, shuttle etc.). To date , one of the most important single-pass interferome try measurement campaigns is the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) completing it s mission successfully after 11 days of operation b etween 11 and 22 of February 2000. On the other hand, repeat-pass InSA R has been used by several satellite systems: ENVISA T, ERS 1-2, RADARSAT 1-2, ALOS, JERS-1 etc. One of the most advanced syst ems is the German TerraSAR-X (TSX) satellite launch ed on June 15 , 2007. TSX offers high resolution (~1m by Spotlight mode) imagery which could not been achieved from radar te chnologies up to this time similar to high resolution optical imagery. In cont rast to optical sensors, TSX can be operated unde...

This paper presents an analysis of the performance of TerraSAR-X for subsidence monitoring in urban areas. The city of Murcia has been selected as a test-site due to its high deformation rate and the set of extensometers deployed along the city that provide validation data. The obtained results have been compared with those obtained from ERS/ENVISAT data belonging to the same period and validated with the in-situ measurements.
