DEFORMATION MONITORING AND TIME-SERIES & DISASTER POTENTIALITY ANALYSIS OF GAS PIPELINE USING SENTINEL DATA
Abstract
Synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) measurement technology is a new remote sensing technology that can effectively monitor slight land deformation. Compared with traditional monitoring technology, InSAR technology has the advantages of wide coverage, all-weather and low cost, providing a technical means of high-resolution, high-precision and low-cost for hidden geological hazard identification and deformation monitoring along pipelines. For purpose of this paper, we performed deformation time-series comprehensive processing and analysis on gas pipeline based on Sentinel-1 image data through small baseline data processing, and extracted pipeline deformation quantities from 2020 to 2022. The land deformation rate of the ascending track data during this period ranges from −43 mm/year to 25 mm/year, and that of the descending track data from −66 mm/year to 33 mm/year. The results show that the area along the gas pipeline is in stable condition on the whole, deformation mainly occurred along a section in the northwest of Haidian District, and a large quantity of deformation occurred since January of 2020 until December of 2021, with the maximum deformation quantity of −70mm, This result provided a reliable reference for safety monitoring and repair & maintenance of the gas pipeline.
