The Banff Pipeline Workshop will be taking place next week in beautiful Banff, Alberta. 3vG will join the largest community of pipeline-industry professionals in Canada. The mission is to build a collaborative network to share ideas, find resources and make connections. Since the beginning, the Banff Pipeline Workshop has been an interactive forum to discuss best practices for management of pipeline integrity, safety and risk. https://loom.ly/2B08FYo #3vgeomatics #oricadigitalsolutions #banffpipelineworkshop #banff

Traditional in-ground instrumentation for monitoring field performance can only provide single location measurement data after the time of installation. Meanwhile, 3vG can incorporate satellite based historical measurements over a region of interest dating back to 1992 into the ongoing Displacement DataStream, to provide more context, more accuracy, and more benefit. Displacement DataStream provides timely updates on displacement data, including time series displacements, average movement rates, and detection contours for displacement and acceleration. These updates are accessible through 3vG's Motionary web platform within 24 hours of receiving new satellite images. Unlike traditional InSAR technology, which involves periodic delivery of individual products, Displacement DataStream offers a connected service where new and updated measurements are streamed directly to Motionary. This streamlining process allows for easier interpretation and analysis of InSAR information, as well as proactive risk mitigation, without burdening the end user with data reception, management, and integration tasks.

Railway systems can cover vast distances, with tracks that can stretch hundreds or even thousands of kilometers. To ensure the safety of these networks, constant monitoring is necessary to maintain their structural integrity. However, natural disasters like floods and landslides can significantly impact the geohazard risks associated with these railways, posing a threat to their functionality. It is a challenging task to monitor these extensive networks with the required precision to mitigate these risks. Fortunately, InSAR technology offers a cost-effective solution to this problem. Unlike traditional monitoring systems, InSAR can cover railway networks more frequently and with larger coverage. The use of InSAR does not require any installation or access to the right of way (ROW). By utilizing multiple InSAR image footprints, it is possible to detect thousands of potential hazards over a large area of railway networks using 3vG.

In 2018, the Saddle Dam D of the Xe-Pian Xe-Namnoy power project in south eastern Laos collapsed, releasing 5bn cubic litres of water. The flash flood resulted in many deaths and forced thousands of victims to lose their homes. Looking into this disaster, 3vG was able to determine that signs of impending collapse were there. Using InSAR historical data, evidence of displacement within the dam came to light, months ahead of the event. Had 3vG been monitoring the site, early warning would have likely been provided.

The most recent development in InSAR processing is Displacement DataStream, which introduces a fresh approach to detecting risks at an early stage. It is a cutting-edge satellite InSAR monitoring service offered by 3vGeomatics, providing frequent updates on displacement measurements following each new image collection. The Displacement DataStream provides timely updates on time series displacements, average movement rates, and detection contours for displacement and acceleration. These updates are delivered through 3vG's Motionary web platform within 24 hours of receiving new satellite images. In contrast to traditional InSAR technology, which involves periodic delivery of individual products, Displacement DataStream offers a continuous stream of new and updated data directly to Motionary. This approach eliminates the burden of data reception, file management, and integration for end users, allowing them to easily interpret and analyze the information. This innovative process greatly enhances the accessibility of InSAR data, enabling more effective analysis and risk management.

The City of Seattle initiated construction on a new tunnel in July 2013, spanning 1.7 miles and with a diameter of 57 feet. This project, costing $2.1 billion, aimed to replace the Alaskan Way Viaduct and improve civil engineering and infrastructure in the area. However, the world's biggest tunnel boring machine, known as "Big Bertha", halted its operations in December 2013 beneath Pioneer Square, a historic district in Seattle. In November 2014, crews began digging a 120-foot deep vertical recovery pit to access and repair Big Bertha. Due to the project's size and location, it was difficult to acquire accurate displacement measurements. Read here about how 3vG used RADARSAT-2 images to benefit this project: https://loom.ly/TIcKc5o #3vg #3vgeomatics #casestudy #InSAR #satellite #seattle #readmore

Tunnels transport water, sewage, electricity, and gas, and are used for underground transport. In civil engineering, they avoid existing infrastructure, reduce surface disruption, and offer direct routes through terrain. Common building methods include cut-and-cover and using a tunnel boring machine (TBM). City tunnel projects follow rules to limit surface disruption and monitor nearby structures. InSAR technology allows precise monitoring over vast areas, often replacing traditional methods.

Since the early 1990s, radar satellites have been gathering images from all over the world. Both urban and rural areas around the globe have stored data that can be used for InSAR studies. 3vG is capable of performing a data archive search across various satellite image databases to assess the availability of data for your particular area of interest. If enough imagery is found, we can proceed with an InSAR analysis to calculate displacement during the given time period.

In the field of geotechnical engineering, precise observation and evaluation of ground displacement is essential to guarantee the security and steadiness of any monitored location. In response to the demand for more adaptable and accurate displacement visualization, 3vG created variable heatmaps for Motionary. Variable heatmaps reveal displacement rates across an entire site for any monitoring period of a user’s choice. This powerful InSAR analysis tool uncovers correlations, patterns, and anomalies that static heatmaps cannot.
