The Advanced Differential Interferometric SAR (A-DInSAR) technique is a class of powerful techniques to monitor ground motion.In the last two decades, the A-DInSAR technique has undergone an important development in terms of processing algorithms and the capability to monitor wide areas.This has been accompanied by an important increase of the Health Publications - Books Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data acquisition capability by spaceborne sensors.An important step forward was the launch of the Copernicus Sentinel-1 constellation.
The development of A-DInSAR based ground deformation services is now technically feasible.This paper describes some Snacking of the most important features of A-DInSAR.Then, it describes the European Ground Motion Service (EGMS), part of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service, which represents a unique initiative for performing ground deformation monitoring on a European scale.
