Abstract:In order to solve the problem that the InSAR atmospheric correction is limited by the number of SAR image and weather conditions, a new tropospheric delay estimation method is proposed, which is based on the terrain and meteorological elements. The zenith tropospheric delay model is constructed and the zenith tropospheric delay is estimated by taking the GPS network in Beijing as an example. The result shows that the precision of the model is similar to the GPS tropospheric delay, which is amounted to mm, and can meet the requirements of InSAR atmospheric correction.
