InSAR Technology
An effective tool for ground deformation monitoring
Properly monitoring the world’s buildings and infrastructure is essential for safety. Current methods of inspection are costly, time consuming and often fail at spotting critical issues. We found a way to automate the inspection process through the use of satellites — giving our clients a real time visual overview of the health and safety of their buildings and infrastructure.

STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING
IS NOT EFFECTIVE NOWADAYS
Outdated information
Or structures not monitored at all! Bridges, dams, urban areas and historical buildings are not under vital surveillance
Under potential risk
Structures are built in close vicinity to hazardous slopes or are threatened by landslides, earthquakes or human-induced changes
Expensive in-situ monitoring
Terrestrial health checks are costly in terms of time, equipment and labour. Spatially extensive areas (hundreds of kilometres) are hardly observable
WhAT WE OFFER?
Precise deformation analysis
Our products - deformation maps - are point clouds with precise displacement time series over monitored objects. Objects can be measured with millimetre accuracy and in high resolution (up to 25 cm).
Frequent space observations
We offer deformation monitoring of man-made structures via remote sensing technology in a range of applications using frequent satellite acquisitions (up to 12 hrs).
Reliable outputs
We provide monitoring of infrastructure stability and advanced situation awareness during evolving and complex deformation processes like landslides, building collapses, highway disruptions, dam failures and earthquakes.
Dedicated team & support
We are devoted to monitoring of the Earth’s surface deformation, whilst ensuring that our customers are protected in the face of a natural or man-made disasters.
