Rotterdam highrise under the InSAR magnifying glass

Case Study

What happens around a high-rise building once construction begins below ground?

This technical paper explores how InSAR can be used to assess the geotechnical impact of high-rise construction, not just on the tower itself, but on the surrounding buildings and infrastructure as well. Using real Rotterdam examples, it shows how satellite-based monitoring can help uncover settlement, tilt and wider deformation effects that are easy to miss with a simplified approach.
