Extensive ground water extraction has been identified as the principle cause of land subsidence in Bangkok and its vicinity. To mitigate major damages from large subsidence magnitudes the phenomenon must be well understood in this area. Up-to-date and reliable subsidence information is indispensable to develop this understanding. Conventionally, surface leveling has served as the primary method for measuring subsidence in Bangkok. But this is costly and time consuming. Differential SAR interferometry (DInSAR) can be an alternative means to obtain measurements of the surface displacement providing better resolution and comparable accuracy while being less time consuming. However, spatial and temporal decorrelation and atmospheric signal contributions in repeat-pass SAR interferometry often hamper the accurate measurement of surface displacements in SAR interferograms. The recently developed Permanent Scatterer (PS) technique invented by POLIMI researchers [1],[2],[3], overcomes these difficulties by interpreting time-series of interferometric phases at coherent point scatterers. In this study, we apply both DInSAR and PS techniques using two time-series of 17 and 11 ERS-SAR acquisitions for two partly overlapping image frames. This study is the first attempt to apply the PS technique to derive urban displacement information in Bangkok. We investigate the feasibility and reliability of using this technique with relatively few acquisitions and in a tropical location for deformation estimation. Using a linear deformation model and network algorithm, we estimate spatially varying displacement rates for the metropolitan area. Our first PS estimation results agree well with available ground leveling measurements.
