In infrastructure management, understanding the density of sand and soil is vital. From road construction to dam stability, the physical...

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are indispensable tools in the modern world, revolutionising how we analyse, interpret, and...

Traditional monitoring methods offer valuable insights into ground conditions, but they often provide only isolated snapshots in time....

Landslides can be significant geohazards with impacts on communities, infrastructure, and the local environment.

Cliffs are likely to have landslides. This is because they have steep slopes and unstable rocks. Natural forces like rain and erosion...

Land subsidence can be caused by both natural processes and human activities.

Imagine having the ability to detect even the slightest shifts in the ground beneath critical infrastructure after an earthquake hits. What

Geology is a crucial component in understanding the context behind the SAR data output that our analysts assess daily. Here's a brief rundow

The future of infrastructure monitoring is here. The path forward promises exciting innovations but also new obstacles.

Let's explore how accurate InSAR really is.

Landslides are a major threat to rail networks, leading to track damage, service disruptions, and costly repairs.

Rail infrastructure plays a vital role in the global economy, connecting cities, moving goods, and providing efficient transportation....

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and optical data systems each offer unique benefits, but SAR holds several key advantages.

Extreme weather events are likely to become more frequent and severe. These events pose significant risks to infrastructure assets.

While both are integral components of satellite-based Earth observation, they serve distinct functions and operate on different...

Remote sensing technology, particularly Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar can be harnessed to provide predicted maintenance for rail.

Unlike traditional ground-based observations, remote sensing allows for large-scale, repetitive, and often non-invasive data collection.

More intense and frequent rainfall can lead to waterlogged soils and higher instances of flooding, compromising foundation integrity.

Can we use the power of satellite remote sensing to detect and mitigate the risk of sinkholes?

In March 2024, a landslip occurred beneath a stretch of railway between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton, UK.
