Atlas-InSAR™ Remote ground deformation monitoring

Atlas-InSAR™ is our in-house InSAR solution for remote monitoring of ground deformation with millimetric accuracy.

Radar satellite interferometry (InSAR) represents a non-intrusive surveying method renowned for its ability to precisely measure millimeter-scale movements of terrain features across expansive regions, spanning both urban and rural landscapes.

This technique capitalizes on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery captured by satellite sensors.

Atlas-InSAR™ harnesses raw satellite data, meticulously processed from satellite constellations, to furnish comprehensive time-series data on ground motion, boasting an impressive density of up to 20,000 points per square kilometer.

Whether employed independently or in tandem with traditional instrumentation, Atlas-InSAR™ offers unparalleled insights into your site or infrastructure, all without the need for ground-based installations.

Atlas-InSAR™ Features

Harness Historical Insights with Extended Baseline Capabilities

Delve into the depths of historical data and uncover invaluable insights with our Atlas™-InSAR solution. Harnessing the extensive SAR data archive dating back to 1992, Atlas-InSAR™ enables historical studies, offering a unique perspective on ground movements over time.

By tapping into this reservoir of information, you gain a deeper understanding of past vulnerabilities, ensuring your construction designs are finely tuned to prevailing conditions. With Atlas-InSAR™ , embrace the power of historical studies to elevate your project’s performance while safeguarding against potential claims.

Precision Unmatched: High-Density and High-Resolution Insights

Atlas-InSAR™ harnesses the power of high-resolution satellite imagery, delivering results with an impressive resolution down to 1m x 2m in the best conditions and a density of up to 20,000 pts/km2, even across expansive territories. This groundbreaking capability grants you access to an unprecedented wealth of information, facilitating in-depth analysis and understanding of your site’s dynamics, irrespective of its scale, infrastructure, or urban context.

Consider the implications of dewatering activities, which can exert substantial influence over considerable distances. Thanks to Atlas-InSAR™ measurements, you can precisely delineate the perimeter at risk, mitigating the potential challenge of losing reference points for ground instruments. With Atlas-InSAR™ , you gain the ability to vigilantly monitor ground movements, detecting even the slightest fluctuations with precision. Armed with these insights, you can quickly implement corrective measures, optimizing your project’s performance with timely actions.

Cost-Effective ground deformation monitoring

Atlas-InSAR™ offers an affordable complement and/or alternative to traditional ground deformation monitoring methods. By providing measurement layers of many thousands to a few compared million measurement points (depending on the surface), Atlas-InSAR™ enables you to gather more data in a shorter time frame to precise leveling, which monitors around 100 points per day in a localized area.

Atlas-InSAR™ can provide more than 20,000 measurement points per square km in urban environments, making it an ideal solution for large-scale projects. By deploying a combination of complementary technologies such as precise leveling, Automatic Total Station, and InSAR, you can significantly lower the cost of ground deformation monitoring while delivering richer information.

With Atlas-InSAR™ , you can optimize your project’s budget without sacrificing accuracy or precision.

Beyond Monitoring™ interactive delivery platform

Beyond Monitoring™ is our web based delivery platform for all of your projects. With an architecture optimized for “big data”, visualization and analysis of millions of data points is smooth and intuitive.

The ability to smoothly handle millions of data points from Atlas-InSAR™ was one of the non-negotiable specifications of the platform and the result is exceeding expectations.

One of our projects in Auckland is generating 7,600,000 data points every 11 days and has been running for 30 months. Navigating this substantial database to locate and analyze critical areas is straightforward with Beyond Monitoring™.

Versatile Applications for Ground and Structure Deformation Monitoring

Atlas-InSAR™ is a versatile tool that can be applied to various environments, from urban to rural settings, to monitor almost any type of asset, including buildings, airports, ports, dams, roadways, railways, and mines.

One of the key strengths of Atlas-InSAR™ is its ability to monitor settlement induced by underground excavation and dewatering for tunnel construction, mining, and other projects. Its capacity to monitor large areas with both high density and accuracy is unmatched, making it an invaluable tool for these markets.

Given its exceptional performance, Atlas-InSAR™ is rapidly becoming a standard in ground and structure deformation monitoring, empowering you with the insights you need to make informed decisions and optimize your project’s performance.

It’s no wonder Atlas-InSAR ™ is becoming a standard reference in ground & structure deformation.
