UK Cities in high resolution – InSAR Monitoring

At SatSense, we leverage radar satellites with varying wavelengths to tailor our solutions to specific applications. The wavelength of radar influences sensitivity to displacement, geolocation precision, and the ability to penetrate vegetation, enabling highly specialised insights.

While C-band Sentinel-1 InSAR data excels at capturing wide-area phenomena, at low cost, with a spatial resolution of 5 x 20 meters, it can fall short for monitoring individual structures like buildings and bridges.

To address this, SatSense is expanding its capabilities by incorporating commercial X-band InSAR data for major UK cities, complementing our nationwide C-band dataset.

This innovative approach aligns with SatSense’s mission to make ground movement data more accessible and actionable for diverse applications.

Why Choose High Resolution?

High-resolution data unlocks new possibilities by offering:

  • Higher Point Density: Improved identification of fine spatial patterns.
  • Enhanced Geo-Positioning Precision: Sub-meter geolocation precision of points enables applications like tracking the displacements of individual buildings or road segments.
  • Greater Sensitivity: Detect even smaller displacements with improved accuracy.
A critical tool for a changing climate

InSAR provides a vital tool for managing and mitigating risks posed by movements to infrastructure, property, natural hazards, and legacy industry in the UK. Climate change, with its impacts on weather patterns, sea levels, and soil conditions, will intensify many of these challenges, making monitoring with advanced technologies like InSAR even more important.
