15 Oct 2009
Source: Respond
The landslide map indicates areas of terrain movement along the line  of sight of the observing satellite based on differential SAR 
interferometry of a stack of ALOS Palsar data. The look direction is 80°. Movement is indicated in two classes, cm/month (rapid movement) and cm/year (slow movement). The used scenes cover 
the time period 2007 - 2008. Topographic information and geocorrection is based on the SRTM3 DEM from USGS. Processing includes SAR image detection, differential SAR interferometry, geocoding and 
terrain correction, landslide detection.
