This paper presents the result of the application of a new technique to the monitoring of a large rock slide in the Italian Alps; it is based on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry and it is fully implemented by using portable ground-based instrumentation. In the specific operational conditions of the test site this technique allows to map landslide displacements in two dimensions thus showing ground displacements, with a theoretical accuracy of 0.75 mm, on a regular grid of 5x5 m pixels. The results have been validated through independent measurements obtained from automatic extensometers and geodetic measurements. The good accuracy and precision of the achieved results highlight the potential effectiveness and flexibility of the technique for landslide monitoring and control.

Abstract

This paper presents the result of the application of a new technique to the monitoring of a large rock slide in the Italian Alps; it is based on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry and it is fully implemented by using portable ground-based instrumentation. In the specific operational conditions of the test site this technique allows to map landslide displacements in two dimensions thus showing ground displacements, with a theoretical accuracy of 0.75 mm, on a regular grid of 5x5 m pixels. The results have been validated through independent measurements obtained from automatic extensometers and geodetic measurements. The good accuracy and precision of the achieved results highlight the potential effectiveness and flexibility of the technique for landslide monitoring and control.
