6 Ground motion measurement and satellite?? InSAR - Technique 6

7 Ground motion measurement What is SAR interferometry 1 st satellite pass 1 st measurement 2 nd satellite pass 2 nd measurement N th satellite pass N th measurement Deformation maps - Mean displacement rate (in mm/yr) of each measurement point. r 2 r 1 r n δd Reference distance Detecting a change Time series between sensor and of distance between ground measured - Temporal evolution sensor of and the ground with millimetric displacement indicates movement. precision. - Absolute displacement in mm Detecting a change of distance between sensor and ground indicates movement. 7

8 Introduction to ALTAMIRA INFORMATION and to InSAR technology Main application sectors Infrastructures Mining Oil & Gas Institutional - Infrastructure (railways, ports, tunnels, metros, bridges..) monitoring - Planning, construction - Open pit mines and slopes - Underground mines - Infrastructures (dump areas, tailing dams ) - Reservoir and pipeline monitoring - Unconventional gas storage - LNG terminals - Natural Hazards mitigation - Safety improvement - Hazard information services (floods, climate changes ) 8

9 Ground motion measurement Sectors of applications: Risk assessment Institutional - Natural Hazards mitigation - Safety improvement - Hazard information services (floods, climate changes ) 9

10 Case study: Jakarta Jakarta ground motion monitoring: Background of the study Increase of flood event in Jakarta Flood events have been increasing in Jakarta during the past decades 35 % of the city inundated in Floods in Jakarta are caused by the insufficient capacity of the urban drainage system - Inadequate maintenance significant sediment and solid waste in the channels, some canal are operating to less than 1/3 of their initial capacity. - Important urbanization reduction of retention area of the natural storm water and increase rainwater runoff Problem of land subsidence mainly due to groundwater extraction (fast urban development) and ground compaction (load of constructions) - Some North Jakarta areas subside in the range of cm/year sinking to 4-5 m below sea-level by Increase risk of inland sea water intrusion and tidal flooding Land subsidence in Jakarta is mainly caused by the important ground water extraction 10

Jayakarta Rob in G.Sahari Rob in G. Sahari The impact of land subsidence can be observed in many flood-prone areas in Jakarta. 11

12 Case study: Jakarta Ground deformations affecting costal areas Objectives of the Project - To analyze past ground deformation in order to understand ground behavior over the years - To mitigate flood risk over the city - Two parallel InSAR studies from different satellites has been performed Historical study ALOS: June 2007 to December 2010 CSK: October 2010 to January More than 3 million measurements points achieved with ALOS PALSAR and 5 million with CSK. - Areas of significant motion are detected: subsidence up to 80mm per year. - During the last year of the study, global stabilization of the subsidence areas is detected. 12

15 Case study: Alexandria Historical study of ground deformation in Alexandria Objectives of the Project - To analyze past ground deformation in order to understand ground behavior over time - To mitigate flood risk over the city Historical study Historical analysis of a large period: (performed with 43 images Envisat) The area of interest is the agglomeration of Alexandria in Egypt 15

16 Case study: Alexandria Historical study over Alexandria, Egypt points have been selected. - The urban area of Alexandria is affected by terrain deformation such as subsidence and uplift. - The InSAR study enables critical areas to be detected and it is a valuable tool to mitigate natural hazards 16

17 Case study: Georgetown Case of the Georgetown (Guyana) seawall - 1.2M of measurement points. - Possibility of evaluating the stability of flood defence structure as the seawall Accumulated displacement in mm 17

19 Conclusions Today, expanding cities are facing challenges such as over-exploitation of water resources When they are located in coastal areas or near rivers, they are often affected by floods To estimate correctly flood risk, two evolutions have to be added: Sea level rise together with subsidence of the cities themselves ALTAMIRA INFORMATION measures ground motion (subsidence and uplift) with millimetric precision using radar satellite images The case studies for Jakarta, Alexandria and Georgetown have shown that InSAR technology is a valuable tool to contribute to risk assessment of cities in flood areas Detailed information about the flood risk is a first step for risk mitigation Land subsidence in Jakarta is mainly caused by the important ground water extraction 19
