Abstract

In this study, we present a case study of the Slumgullion landslide conducted in July 2015 to demonstrate the feasibility of deformation mapping with an airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system known as ARTEMIS SlimSAR, which is a compact, modular, and multi-frequency radar system. For this study, the L-band SlimSAR was installed on a Cessna 206 aircraft and data were collected on July 3, 7, and 10 of 2015 and processed using the time-domain backprojection algorithm. Airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) campaign, GPS surveys and spaceborne InSAR analysis using COSMO-SkyMed images were also conducted to verify the performance of the airborne SAR system. The airborne InSAR results showed satisfying agreement with the GPS and spaceborne InSAR results. A 3-D deformation map over Slumgullion landslide was also generated, which displayed distinct correlation between the landslide motion and topography.
