Radar interferometry working group publishes policy paper

After three years of intensive work, the Deutsche Markscheider-Verein e. V. (DMV), Peine, has completed the development of its principles on the subject of radar interferometry at the end of 2024. This document is intended to provide users without in-depth knowledge of InSAR with a basic understanding of how to use the technology.

The aim is to support decision-makers from companies, authorities and associations in the field of mine surveying and related disciplines to better understand InSAR measurements, to plan projects in a results-oriented manner and to interpret results professionally and represent a revision of the position paper “Principles for the use of satellite-based radar interferometry methods for the acquisition of elevation data” published by the DMV in 2013. The principles can be downloaded from the GEO-LEO portal: https://e-docs.geo-leo.de/server/api/core/bitstreams/4bb000d9-5874-4f3e-b791-f9a57eb4c746/content (DMV/Si.)
