JPL Uses Data from ASF for the ARIA Project

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)/CalTech Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) Project utilizes Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data and Global Positioning System (GPS) for detecting and measuring ground deformation and creating predictive models.

The JPL/CalTech Advanced Rapid Imaging and Aalysis (ARIA) Project utilizes synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data and the Global Positioning System (GPS) for detecting and measuring ground deformation and creating predictive models. Cloud-based Sentinel-1 SAR data from NASA’s Alaska Satellite Facility Distributed Active Archive Center (ASF DAAC) archive are processed by the ARIA team alongside the data to take advantage of the power and scalability of cloud processing. The resulting geocoded unwrapped (GUNW) interferograms are then distributed through the ASF DAAC according to the NASA open-data policy; that is, the data products are freely available to download.
