Scientific paper

Since the detection of surface deformation at Mount Etna, several geodetic studies have been performed on volcanoes with radar interferometric data acquired by the European ERS-1 and ERS-2 satellites, the Japanese JERS-1 satellite and the Canadian RADARSAT-1 satellite. Here we present the preliminary results of an interferometric study of Piton de la Fournaise volcano, Réunion Island, with Synthetic Aperture Radar images acquired by thee ASAR- ENVISAT satellite. Launched in March 2002 by the European Space Agency, ENVISAT is an Earth observation dedicated satellite and its payload consists of a set of instruments for measuring the atmosphere and the surface through the atmosphere. One of these instruments is the ASAR radar designed to provide for continuity of the observations started with the SAR on board of the ERS satellites.
