摘要:Interferometric SAR (InSAR) is a technique to derive topographic information by exploiting the phaseinformation obtained from multiple pass satellite data or in a single pass with two antennas. Topographicinformation can be used to derive slope maps and surface change detection. In InSAR, the same point on theground is viewed by two antennas separated by some distance. This type of viewing geometry causes a pathdifference, which results in phase difference. This phase is due to topography and due to change in backscattering conditions of target. If the time period between the two acquisitions is small then phase change due toterrain change can be neglected and knowing the geometry accurately, we can obtain information abouttopography. This paper describes the methodology adopted and details about the software developed. From theDEM generated, height values of few GCPs(Ground Control Point) are compared with height values fromtopographic maps. RMS accuracy of better than 10 meters was achieved over 24 x 24 Km. area of moderatelyhilly region
