The CSV files contain point locations, coordinates, meta-information, quality information, derived parameters, and estimated displacement vectors. Note that the visualization and analysis of these files requires specialized GIS software, experience, sufficient disk space and memory, and a sufficiently powerful computer. In total, this comprises approximately 350 GB (in zipped form approximately 100 GB) in file size. For each independent satellite position a special file is made. Please consult the Disclaimer page to understant the consequences for practical use of the data.įor the surface and object motion map (bodemdalingskaart 2.0), the data are available in six independent CSV files.

For this reason, if the purpose of the data download is a specific application, we recommend to contact the experts of the ground motion service.

A different methodology for the data processing will result in a different result. It should be noted that the methodology used for the surface and object motion map (Bodemdalingskaart 2.0) is not optimized for a specific purpose. For further information see the explanatory pages. The development of the algorithms, modeling, and data processing is performed by SkyGeo. The estimates are the result of a complex sequence of signal processing steps of the original electromagnetic observables, which involve models and assumptions. These locations are dependent of the satellite position in space, and of the radar reflectivity of the earth's surface. It is a digital dataset of more than 40 billion estimates of (surface and object) motion at irregularly distributed locations. The surface and object motion map (bodemdalingskaart 2.0) is more than a traditional 'map'.
