Popis: The surface subsidence in Nanjing has become increasingly apparent because of the influence of geological conditions and the rapid progress of urbanization. Here, the theory of synthetic aperture radar interferometry is analysed, and a method based on the short baseline subset (SBAS) technology is proposed. The method can overcome time and baseline decorrelation and other factors, and it can extract points with high coherence from interferograms have short spatio-temporal baselines when the atmospheric delay phase and the noise phase in the frequency domain are used to differentiate the corresponding characteristics. The slow deformation ratio of the monitoring area over long periods can also be calculated by this method. In this study, the 16 advanced land observing satellite (ALOS) data acquired from 2007 to 2011 in Nanjing are processed by the SBAS technology and compared with levelling result. This work emphasizes that the SBAS technology could derive the cumulative deformations of surfaces and deformation fields accurately.
