Abstract
This research highlights the significance of studying landslide processes, which pose a yearly threat due to various factors, causing destruction and endangering lives. The study explores the potential of radar imagery, particularly the differential interferometry (DInSAR) method, for detecting, monitoring, and assessing landslides. It involves tasks such as analyzing landslide hazards, selecting research methodologies, defining study area criteria, collecting Earth remote sensing data, processing it using DInSAR, and assessing landslide impacts.
The novelty of this work lies in the pioneering use of radar interferometry for landslide investigation in the specific region, with implications for landslide monitoring and risk mitigation decision-making. While DInSAR proves valuable for measuring ground deformations, it faces challenges in detecting small-scale landslides. Nevertheless, high-resolution radar imagery, beyond what Sentinel-1 provides, holds promise for comprehensive landslide assessments.
