SqueeSAR™ provides surface displacement maps to assist in the reconstruction of historical ground subsidence trends and events.
Subsidence caused by active ground work can result in structural damage requiring repair. SqueeSAR™ is used to accurately map surface deformation over time that can assist in determining ground deformation culpability.
Ground Subsidence Disputes
In cases of subsidence dispute, SqueeSAR™ can be used to measure historic ground movement to millimeter accuracy. Radar imagery archives allow for the temporal evolution of surface subsidence to be mapped, providing a detailed overview of ground response to natural events and anthropogenic activities over time.
The ability to measure the extent and temporal evolution of surface deformation over wide areas can be used in damage disputes by providing evidence to help determine ground deformation culpability.
Areas of ongoing construction can be monitored with SqueeSAR™ to identify expected, or unanticipated, deformation occurring over the worked site and surrounding areas. Regular monitoring can identify the onset of potential subsidence issues, providing engineers with an early indication of ground movement.
