Abstract:
Earth observation using spaceborne sensors with short revisiting time has forgone the limits of conventional assessment methods. In this paper, we investigate the use of SAR Tomography (TomoSAR) to monitor infrastructures, using Morandi Bridge in Genoa, Italy, as a case study. Morandi Bridge suffered a partial collapse due to a structural failure on August 14, 2018. The main issues to be considered for using TomoSAR as a means of an early warning system in structural health monitoring are discussed, highlighting the differences respect to monitoring applications dealing with subsidence and deformation of extended areas. A set of 70 Sentinel-1A images of the bridge over a period of three years prior to the bridge collapse are analyzed using 5D TomoSAR based on Sup-GLRT scatterers detection technique. Preliminary results indicate that possible temporal and thermal deformations of the static structure can be estimated using the method considered.
