Abstract :
In this study we used both differential and corner reflector InSAR techniques to monitor landslides at different geological sites in Canada and China. Our results show the differential InSAR maps are necessary and simple first steps in understanding regional landslide motion at these sites. In the case of our Canadian site the corner reflector results compares well with our D InSAR results.
