With the rapid development of new system radar, radar applications have been greatly extended from early military target seeking, tracking and fire control to civilian weather detection, terrain mapping and disaster monitoring. Landslide hazards could cause severe threats to human lives and properties worldwide every year. Surface deformations normally occur before the macro failure of natural and engineered slopes, which is of great significance for landslide forecasting and early warning. Radar differential interferometry techniques have been widely utilized to measure surface deformation of large-scale scenes in the past several decades.
This Special Section aims to gather the state-of-the-art research progress in the field of radar differential interferometry, and highlight the novel techniques and significant applications. Paper types include academic papers, research communications and review articles on the latest research of radar diffe- rential interferometry. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to
Space-borne/GEO/Air-borne/Ground-based SAR differential interferometry
Interferometric phase filtering
Permanent scatterer selection
Atmospheric phase compensation
1-D/3-D deformation measurement
Landslide forecasting and warning
