Abstract
An on-site InSAR imaging method carried out with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is proposed to monitor terrain changes with high spatial resolution, short revisit time, and high flexibility. To survey and explore a specific area of interest in real time, a combination of a least-square phase unwrapping technique and a mean filter for removing speckles is effective in reconstructing the terrain profile. The proposed method is validated by simulations on three scenarios scaled down from the high-resolution digital elevation models of the US geological survey (USGS) 3D elevation program (3DEP) datasets. The efficacy of the proposed method and the efficiency in CPU time are validated by comparing with several state-of-the-art techniques.
