Abstract

This chapter provides a summary of the most current sensors being used for monitoring infrastructure. We also provide case studies on:

The use of time-series radar interferometry (InSAR) to monitor critical highways, railways, and pipelines affected by landslides that are triggered by coastal erosion, spring snowmelt, permafrost thaw, monsoons, and hurricanes.
The use of InSAR, change detection, and image fusion techniques to explore and monitor mining sites.
The use of radar images to monitor shoreline change and oil spills.

We have shown that high-resolution InSAR images are effective as an early warning system to monitor:

Landslides along highways and railways in coastal and mountainous areas.
Safe mining practices and heaving rates were produced by steam injection in the mining of the oil sands.
Pipeline corridors in high risk mountainous, wetlands, and permafrost terrains to prevent oil spills.

We have also shown that radar time-series, change detection, and polarmetric image fusion techniques are effective to identify

Mining practice and illegal mining in cloudy remote tropical areas.
Shifting low lying coastlines caused by rising sea level affecting coastal infrastructure.
Faults to improve mineral exploration.
Oil spills from ocean drilling platforms.

These case studies will assist in providing guidelines for the use of advanced radar image techniques for monitoring infrastructure related to civil engineering construction and mining.
