Abstract :
In this work we present a methodology for developing a Permanent Scatterers (PS) analysis jointly exploiting data acquired from parallel orbits to estimate height and deformation trend of multi-angle urban targets. The methodology allows applying the PS technique also in areas where the number of ASAR acquisitions per single track would prevent to get reliable estimates. Preliminary experimental results achieved in the Shanghai test site confirm the promising potential of the proposed methodology.
