Subsidence Analysis in Mining Area of Dabrowskie Coal Basin using PSInSAR Technique

The analysis of satellite data of Permanent Scatterers InSAR technique (PSInSAR) is presented in the paper. Presented discussion concern northeastern part of Upper Silesia, and supply information about slow, vertical ground movements, which occur there. Paper provides basic information connected with technique of the radar scenes processing (PSInSAR) and presents characteristics of the available PSInSAR data set. For detailed analysis of ground motions, revealed by PSInSAR technique, mining areas of Dabrowskie Coal Basin have been chosen. In order to find the reasons that could explain ground displacements in this region, the preliminary analysis of correlation between values of the ground movements rates, faults system and mining boundaries locations has been performed.
