In a 🆕 study, PAZ Satellite and @CopernicusEU Sentinel-1 were compared for their ability to track ground displacement.

It turns out PAZ is great for detecting changes in flat surfaces, like runways and roads, while Sentinel-1 is more suited to determine vertical structures, like buildings or towers.
