Harnessing the Power of Satellites to Diagnose Damaged Infrastructure: A new method of infrastructure monitoring using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) remote sensing systems.

The article focuses on using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite technology to assess aging infrastructure and detect early signs of damage before they evolve into costly failures. Topics include remote sensing methods for pavement and embankment inspection, integrating SAR data into geotechnical asset management, and the benefits of cost and time savings for transportation authorities.
