Zusammenfassung |
The rapid assessment of the evolution of the phenomena which occur during an
emergency, along with an all weather and h24 monitoring capability, are
probably the main characteristics of a system aimed at optimizing
intervention in natural disasters, such as landslide collapses. A few techniques
are able to provide all these features remotely, hence assuring safe
conditions to operators. This paper reports on an application of the
GB-InSAR (Ground-Based Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) technique
to monitor a landslide threatening an infrastructure, the A3 motorway in
the Calabria Region (Southern Italy), in emergency conditions. Here, it is
evaluated how well this technique is able to satisfy these requirements. On
30 January 2009, a mass movement never detected before and located
near Santa Trada viaduct caused the closure of that sector of the A3
motorway. The prompt installation of a GB-InSAR permitted to follow and to
understand the temporal evolution of the landslide until the end of the
emergency and then safely reopen of the motorway. The main steps of the
GB-InSAR interferometry data interpretation used in managing this emergency
are described and discussed here. In detail, data collected through a
continuous acquisition have permitted the division of the unstable area into three
smaller zones characterized by different extents of displacement. |
