InSAR ground motion data between 2015 and 2017 over UKGEOS - Glasgow
The data represent ground motion results obtained from Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) for the UKGEOS – Glasgow site. The InSAR techniques used is called Interferometric Point Target Analysis (IPTA) and the BGS processing is based on Sentinel-1 radar satellite data for the period August 2015 - June 2017. The results include time series of displacement (in mm) during this interval and average velocity across the whole period (in mm/yr) along the satellite Line of Sight (Hanssen, 2001). InSAR has provided information on the baseline conditions of ground stability ahead of any underground activity planned in at the Glasgow Geothermal Energy Research Field Site (GGERFS) as described in Bateson and Novellino (2019).

InSAR (and IPTA) can measure terrain displacements along the satellite Line of Sight (LOS) using the radar signal phase change between two images acquired over the same area at different times, co-registered to form an interferogram (Rosen et al., 2000).
