30-Mar-10 24

• Conclusions

– Historic data → normal behavior

– Envisat data not suitable. Reasons:

– Very sudden deformations

– Undersampling (35 day repetition rate)

– Possible change of orientation

• Temporal decorrelation

– Repair works

• Solution

– Another data set�

• Higher repetition rate

• Shorter wavelength (improve detectability)
