Abstract

Beijing is one of the largest cities in China, which has suffered from land subsidence for a long time. According to the study from 2005 to 2017, the maximum subsidence rate of Beijing is more than 10 cm/year. This paper will use Sentinel-1A TOPS data for the first time to reveal the land subsidence of Beijing from 2017 to 2018 by using time series interferometry. SBAS-InSAR technology was used for time series analysis. The annual mean subsidence rate and time series subsidence of Beijing were obtained. The results show that the east of Chaoyang district and the northwest of Tongzhou district were the severe subsidence areas in Beijing, and the subsidence rate is more than 10 cm/year, which indicates that the subsidence area in Beijing is continuous in recent years, and corresponding measures should be taken by the government.
