ABSTRACT

The source of deformations in one of the most densely populated residential areas of the city of Zonguldak is studied using InSAR techniques. During the investigations, it is discovered there had been mining acitivites underway under the city during the time period that the InSAR images were taken. Approximately 8 years of this time period is examined, and in total a maximum 41 cm subsidence is discovered in the area of coal mining. In addition, the vertical motion coefficient for the area of interest is calculated as 1.6.

Key words: Geodesy, remote sensing, InSAR, subsidence.
