Validation of InSAR Time Series for Landfill Characterization and Monitoring: A Geospatial Approach to Ecological Security and Land System Sustainability.
This study applies InSAR time series analysis derived from Sentinel-1 satellite data (ascending and descending orbits) processed with ISCE2 and StaMPS (v.4.1) software to evaluate deformation dynamics in three landfill types near Gijón, Spain.

| Resumo: | This study applies InSAR time series analysis derived from Sentinel-1 satellite data (ascending and descending orbits) processed with ISCE2 and StaMPS (v.4.1) software to evaluate deformation dynamics in three landfill types near Gijón, Spain. Initially, the data were validated against the European Ground Motion Service (EGMS) dataset using a set of Persistent Scatterers (PS) in an urban control area through two analytical approaches (EGMS protocol and PSDefoPAT(2023)). The results showed high consistency, with 82–85% of points classified as highly reliable. Subsequently, this control group was compared with PS from each landfill type (active sanitary, operational inert, and closed inert). Significant deformation differences were found in each landfill type: the active sanitary landfill exhibited distinct anomalies depending on orbit, with strong residual variance instability detected (p < 0.003) in both. Operational inert landfills showed significant anomalies (p < 0.001) in both orbits with variable stability, while closed inert landfills displayed strong stability (p > 0.7) and variable anomalies. These results confirm the efficacy of InSAR approaches for detecting active landfill zones to aid in locating illegal or unauthorized dumping sites and to direct in situ inspection planning. |
