A comprehensive dataset of surface deformation satellite maps of the valley of Toluca, Mexico

Abstract

This work presents a substantial compilation of ground deformation maps portraying the dynamic evolution of the Valley of Toluca (VT) in Mexico. The dataset comprises a repository of 1121 BEAM-DIMAP formated maps obtained by the Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) technique. Leveraging satellite image pairs from the Sentinel 1-A and Sentinel 1-B satellites, the dataset spans intervals of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months between each image acquisition and covers a panoramic timeframe from October 2014 to December 2022. This compilation provides an in-depth chronicle of the VT's ground transformations over a span of eight years that could be of interest to various disciplines. To enhance the dataset's robustness, a supplementary comma-separated values (CSV) dataset includes the coherence statistics from the satellite image pairs, substantiating the precision and dependability of the ground deformation maps presented herein.
