Ground Motion Service

Ground Motion Service is based on Satellite based information and its application on interferometry. This allows to provide a service for sub millimeter measurements ground level rise of decline.

Status of Learning Resource
pre-alpha-Version started at the UN-SPIDER event on "International Cooperation Towards Low-Emission abd Resilient Society".

Areas of Application

 * rise of ground level due to use of geothermic energy.
 * decline of ground level due to mining activity
 * shift of digital elevation model due to earth quakes or vulcanic activities (e.g. relevant for early warning or Risk Management).

Learning Task

 * Identify costal areas in which the ground level declines.
 * Identify the causes for the decline of the decline of ground level
 * Mining,
 * Erosion,
 * Exploitation of ground water resources,
 * Analyse the consequences of sea level rise due to Climate Change and decribe the consequences of densely populated costal regions.
 * Analyse the consequences of sea level rise due to Climate Change and decribe the consequences of densely populated costal regions.
