In this work, we assess the performance of Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) based on Sentinel-1 data in the Swiss Alps, focusing on the analysis of surface displacement in areas located in permafrost. To this end, we exploit a PSI dataset over Canton Wallis and the recently published permaf...
