In this study, 28 StripMap TerraSAR-X images were processed using a Persistent Scatterer Interferometry technique in order to detect and analyze superficial deformation phenomena affecting the hill of Montjuïc in Barcelona between December 2007 and November 2009. The results show significant displacement values in two main areas affected by different types of superficial displacements, specifically compaction in a former quarry refill and sliding processes. Displacement values of up to 12 mm/year along the line of sight of the satellite were detected in the area near the Pèrez de Rozas baseball stadium whereas values of up to 7 mm/year were found in the vicinity of Costa i Llobera gardens. For each deformation area, high resolution deformation velocity data were analyzed and integrated with historical images and field data to interpret the detected phenomena.

Abstract

In this study, 28 StripMap TerraSAR-X images were processed using a Persistent Scatterer Interferometry technique in order to detect and analyze superficial deformation phenomena affecting the hill of Montjuïc in Barcelona between December 2007 and November 2009. The results show significant displacement values in two main areas affected by different types of superficial displacements, specifically compaction in a former quarry refill and sliding processes. Displacement values of up to 12 mm/year along the line of sight of the satellite were detected in the area near the Pèrez de Rozas baseball stadium whereas values of up to 7 mm/year were found in the vicinity of Costa i Llobera gardens. For each deformation area, high resolution deformation velocity data were analyzed and integrated with historical images and field data to interpret the detected phenomena.
