The land surface in the Padang City is thought to be experiencing a continuous relative subsidence due to natural processes and man-made activities. Factors that affect land subsidence include earthquakes, sea level rise, infrastructure development, sediment transport, and excessive use of groundwater sources. The purpose of this research is to map the rate of land subsidence which is processed from the Sentinel 1-A radar, satellite imagery using the Differential Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) method. The data used are two pairs of Sentinel-1A level 1 Single Looking Complex (SLC) imagery which were acquired in 2018 and 2019. Image processing is carried out by filtering and multilooking techniques on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. The following process changes the phase unwrapping to the ground level phase using phase displacement. Land subsidence in 2018–2019 from DInSAR processing reached -10.5 cm / year. The largest land subsidence occurred in North Padang with an average of -7.64 cm/year. Land subsidence in the Padang City, which is located near the estuary, is due to the nature of the alluvial sediment material. The use of Sentinel 1 SAR remote sensing data can provide important information in the context of mitigating land subsidence in the Padang City. Therefore, we need the right policies to handle future land subsidence cases. Land subsidence mapping is one of the factors that determine the vulnerability of coastal areas to disasters

Abstract. Land subsidence associated with groundwater-level declines is stipulated as an “undesirable effect” in California's Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), and has been identified as a potential issue in San Diego, California, USA. The United States Geological Survey (USGS), the Sweetwater Authority, and the City of San Diego, undertook a cooperative study to better understand the hydromechanical response of the coastal aquifer system using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) techniques. Three periods of interest were analyzed for this study that correspond to the periods before and after two substantial changes were made to the location and volume of pumpage: (1) April–August 2016 when groundwater levels and land surface elevation were relatively stable during normal pumping, (2) September 2016–May 2017 when groundwater levels recovered and the land surface uplifted during a period of substantially reduced pumping, (3) June 2017–October 2018 when groundwater levels declined and land subsidence occurred when pumpage resumed and expanded to new wells. Spatial and temporal characterization of the hydromechanical response to changes in pumpage is important for managing land subsidence. Further study using InSAR techniques, especially when combined with ground-based geodetic and monitoring-well networks, will provide water managers information to help effectively manage groundwater resources as stipulated in the SGMA.

Land subsidence in DKI Jakarta influenced by several key factors, including the number of buildings that increase the load above the surface. There are still many people who explore groundwater sources as the principal source of clean water. Also,  the soil type is dominated by alluvial. This alluvial deposit can be one of the parameters for soil deformation in the form of land subsidence and uplift in land surface because basically, alluvial soil types have a susceptibility to the load support power above. So that the land subsidence in DKI Jakarta is relatively continuous. To find out the land subsidence is used a high-tech method,  Differential Interferometry Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) satellite image of radar data (SAR Sentinel-1A) in 2017. The result shows the land subsidence in the average value of DKI Jakarta which is about -3.685 cm/year and the highest subsidence happened in the West Jakarta district about -5.850 cm/year in average.

The sub-Saharan African coast is experiencing fast-growing urbanization, particularly around major cities. This threatens the equilibrium of the socio-ecosystems where they are located and on which they depend: underground water resources are exploited with a disregard for sustainability; land is reclaimed from wetlands or lagoons; built-up areas, both formal and informal, grow without adequate urban planning. Together, all these forces can result in land surface deformation, subsidence or even uplift, which can increase risk within these already fragile socio-ecosystems. In particular, in the case of land subsidence, the risk of urban flooding can increase significantly, also considering the contribution of sea level rise driven by climate change. Monitoring such fast-changing environments is crucial to be able to identify key risks and plan adaptation responses to mitigate current and future flood risks. Persistent scatterer interferometry (PSI) with synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a powerful tool to monitor land deformation with high precision using relatively low-cost technology, also thanks to the open access data of Sentinel-1, which provides global observations every 6 days at 20-m ground resolution. In this paper, we demonstrate how it is possible to monitor land subsidence in urban coastal areas by means of permanent scatterer interferometry and Sentinel-1, exploiting an automatic procedure based on an integration of the Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP) and the Stanford Method for Persistent Scatterers (StaMPS). We present the results of PSI analysis over the cities of Banjul (the Gambia) and Lagos (Nigeria) showing a comparison of results obtained with TerraSAR-X, Constellation of Small Satellites for the Mediterranean Basin Observation (COSMO-SkyMed) and Environmental Satellite advanced synthetic aperture radar (Envisat-ASAR) data. The methodology allows us to highlight areas of high land deformation, information that is useful for urban development, disaster risk management and climate adaptation planning.

The Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission provides synthetic aperture radar (SAR) acquisitions over large areas with high temporal and spatial resolution. This new generation of satellites providing open-data products has enhanced the capabilities for continuously studying Earth surface changes. Over the past two decades, several studies have demonstrated the potential of differential synthetic aperture radar interferometry (DInSAR) for detecting and quantifying land surface deformation. DInSAR limitations and challenges are linked to the SAR properties and the field conditions (especially in mountainous environments) leading to spatial and temporal decorrelation of the SAR signal. High temporal decorrelation can be caused by changes in vegetation (particularly in nonurban areas), atmospheric conditions, or high ground surface velocity. In this study, the kinematics of the complex and vegetated Corvara landslide, situated in Val Badia (South Tyrol, Italy), are monitored by a network of three permanent and 13 monthly measured benchmark points measured with the differential global navigation satellite system (DGNSS) technique. The slope displacement rates are found to be highly unsteady and reach several meters a year. This paper focuses firstly on evaluating the performance of DInSAR changing unwrapping and coherence parameters with Sentinel-1 imagery, and secondly, on applying DInSAR with DGNSS measurements to monitor an active and complex landslide. To this end, 41 particular SAR images, coherence thresholds, and 2D and 3D unwrapping processes give various results in terms of reliability and accuracy, supporting the understanding of the landslide velocity field. Evolutions of phase changes are analysed according to the coherence, the changing field conditions, and the monitored ground-based displacements.
