Zusammenfassung |
The Tohoku-Oki earthquake on 11 March 2011 caused significant widespread
crustal movements. In a previous study, we proposed a method for capturing
two-dimensional (2-D) surface displacements from a pair of pre- and
post-event TerraSAR-X (TSX) intensity images. However, it is impossible to
detect three-dimensional (3-D) displacements from one pair of TSX images. In
this study, three pairs of pre- and post-event TSX images taken on different
paths were used to estimate 3-D crustal movements. The relationship between
the actual 3-D displacements and the converted 2-D movements in the synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) images
was derived based on the observation model of a SAR sensor. The 3-D movements
were then calculated from three sets of detected 2-D movements that occurred
within a short time period. Compared with GPS observations, the proposed
method was found to be capable of detecting the 3-D crustal movements with
sub-pixel accuracy. |
