This work concerns the application of space-borne SAR interferometry (InSAR) to the study of the land subsidence problem affecting the urban areas of the Firenze-Prato-Pistoia basin (Central Italy). Such a phenomenon is mainly related to the large amount of ground-water pumped for the industrial activities of this area. The interferometric analysis has been carried out by means of both traditional Differential Interferometry (DInSAR) and Permanent Scatterers technique (PS) by using SAR data acquired by the ESA ERS1/2 satellites. Different patterns of terrain subsidence have been detected in the industrial areas of the monitored basin.

Abstract
This work concerns the application of space-borne SAR interferometry (InSAR) to the study of the land subsidence problem affecting the urban areas of the Firenze-Prato-Pistoia basin (Central Italy). Such a phenomenon is mainly related to the large amount of ground-water pumped for the industrial activities of this area. The interferometric analysis has been carried out by means of both traditional Differential Interferometry (DInSAR) and Permanent Scatterers technique (PS) by using SAR data acquired by the ESA ERS1/2 satellites. Different patterns of terrain subsidence have been detected in the industrial areas of the monitored basin.
