Reclamation Information Sharing Environment (RISE)

The Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technique will provide enhanced seepage detection and characterization approaches to the Reclamation area offices and other agencies, directly help Reclamation manage water resources efficiently, and potentially be applicable to other earthen embankment sites and structures in order to identify and prioritize potential repair locations to promote healthy water conveyance and storage infrastructure. These periodically collected SAR data and the time-series analysis results will provide valuable information within a short time period to detect any potential risks.
