Excessive exploitation of underground mine resources has caused serious land subsidence in China. This paper focused on monitoring and modeling the single subsidence basin in coal mining area based on SAR interferometry (InSAR). The optimum InSAR processing strategy to monitor the mining subsidence was built to obtain the land subsidence with large deformation. And a method of three-dimensional mathematical modeling of single subsidence basin based on InSAR measurements was presented. Using Jining Coalfield (China) as the study area, we acquired 7 L-band PALSAR images from January 2008 to February 2010 to monitor the land subsidence in Jining Coalfield. The deformation maps in Jining Coalfield in different periods were obtained. Taking the Geting Coal Mine within the Jining coalfield as an example, we finely analyzed and interpreted the deformation maps. Compared with the simultaneous filed measurements, the precision of deformation measurement using D-InSAR in mining area was analyzed. The root mean square error was 1.37 cm. The method of fine interpretation and analysis for a single subsidence basin was established. The experiments have proved that InSAR technique with L-band InSAR data is suitable for monitoring mining subsidence with large deformation. And the 3D mathematical modeling method could be used for the single subsidence basin in coal mining area.
