Interferometric Radar (IBIS) Case Studies
Monitoring of buildings and soil movement with Hydra-G
After Balduina Collapse an HYDRA-G was installed in a stable area and the investigation was carried out in collaboration with the Rome Fire Brigades.
Hydra-G emergency monitoring and special application
Monitoring of buildings and soil movement due to Pomarico Landslide
Cut-slope monitoring on the French railway network

IBIS-Rover in complex pit geometry
The Anagold Çöpler Gold Mine in Turkey takes advantage of the flexibility of the IBIS-Rover to cover multiple critical areas in complex pit geometry.Integration of Panoramic High Resolution Images with Slope Monitoring Radar Data
Two Eagle-Vision Cameras were commissioned and integrated with the IBIS-FM Slope Monitoring radar systems at the Ok Tedi Mine in Papua New Guinea in November 2014.High resolution visual information is correlated with radar data in support of geotechnical investigations.
Monitoring of sub bench-scale failures
The Yara Siilinjärvi Apatite mine in Finland is a good example of radar monitoring of the entire pit with sub-bench resolution.Tailings Dam Monitoring
The recent happenings at Mount Polley Mine in Canada (August 2014) and at the Two Gentlemen's gold-silver mine in the northern Mexican state of Sinaloa (October 2014) have raised the attention to the need for effectively monitor deformation of tailing dams to prevent catastrophic environmental disasters.Dam Monitoring
Monitoring of structural movements (dams, historical buildings, towers) is an increasingly important task for today’s construction engineers.
Ice avalanches – Glacier instability
Weissmies (4017m) is one of the most frequently climbed peaks in southern Switzerland and separates the Saas Valley from the Simplon Valley. It is easily accessible from the cable car station located at Hohsass. Weissmies glacier was reported to have produced several small ice avalanches in the summer of 2014.
Monitoring of the Chatou Railway Bridge in France
The Chatou railway bridge crosses the Seine River between Chatou and Rueil-Malmaison (France). It lies on the rail line between Paris and Saint-Germain-en-Laye. (Line A of RER - Réseau Express Régional d'Île-de-France ).
Hi-Rise buildings dynamic monitoring
Today, the measurement of displacements and vibrations of high buildings still represents a challenge for structural engineers mainly due to logistics matters. IBIS-FS introduces a totally new solution in the domain of structural monitoring of hi-rise buildings, with many advantages over traditional instruments for this field of application.
Kinematics of the Slumgullion Landslide revealed by Ground based InSAR Surveys
We tested the IBIS-FL, which is a ground-based, interferometric, syntetic aperture radar to determine whether it could rapidly acquire kinematic data for a complex and large landslide like the Slumguillon.
