Coherence Tracking and its Adaptation to TOPSAR Acquisition Mode - Study case over Antarctic Ice Shelves
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Remote Sensing already proved as an ideal solution to determine surface displacements, thanks to its day-and-night and cloud-free characteristics. Furthermore, more and more acquisitions are becoming available for users (Radarsat Constellation Mission, Cosmo Skymed, SA...
