Abstract

Long-term over-exploitation of underground water, static and dynamic load is increasing year by year, which influenced the occurrence and development of regional land subsidence in Beijing, China. We used Envisat advanced synthetic aperture radar data acquired from 2003 to 2009 and PSI (persistent scatterers for SAR interferometry) and small baseline technology to estimate regional land subsidence information in Beijing, China. In different situation of space utilization, we chose five typical settlement areas according to classified information of land-use, multi-spectral remote sensing images and geological data. We analyzed the time-series evolution characteristics of uneven subsidence by GIS spatial analysis. The comparative analysis results suggest that for five typical settlement areas, the complex situations of space utilization affect the trend of uneven subsidence, the simpler space utilization situation (relatively fewer transport lines, construction), the smaller settlement differences and the smaller trend of the uneven subsidence.
