  • Mapping Land Subsidence of Krishna – Godavari Basin Using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry Technique
    Mapping Land Subsidence of Krishna – Godavari Basin using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry Technique Lokhande Rohith Kumar, Divya Sekhar Vaka, Y. S. Rao Centre of Studies in Resources Engineering, IIT Bombay, Powai-400076, Mumbai, India Email: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] KEYWORDS: Interferometry, subsidence, PALSAR, oil and gas wells ABSTRACT SAR Interferometry (InSAR) is a technique by which a wide area can be mapped for surface deformation. The conventional InSAR technique has limitations due to baseline restriction, atmospheric phase delay and temporal decorrelation. Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) technique is an advanced InSAR technique, and it mitigates the atmospheric phase delay effect and geometric decorrelation to a large extent by utilizing a stack of interferograms and gives time series deformation with high accuracy. Extraction of oil and natural gas from underground deposits leads to land subsidence. The East coast of Andhra Pradesh (AP) state in Krishna-Godavari basin is most likely to be affected by this phenomena because of extraction of oil and natural gas from its underground reservoirs for the last two decades. In this paper, an attempt is made to know how the urban cities in this region are affected due to land subsidence using PSI technique. For this, two coastal test areas are selected and ALOS-1 PALSAR datasets from 2007 to 2011 comprising of 11 and 13 scenes are processed using PSI technique. Although the area predominantly agriculture, small villages, towns and cities provide adequate Persistent Scatterers (PS). From the results, land deformation rates of different cities in test area are observed.
