Pre-collapse spaceborne deformation monitoring of the Kakhovka dam, Ukraine, from 2017 to 2023

A. Tavakkoliestahbanati, P. Milillo, et al.

The Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine's collapse on June 6th, 2023, provides a groundbreaking case study. Using multi-temporal InSAR data, researchers, including Amin Tavakkoliestahbanati and Pietro Milillo, unveil deformations that hint at possible damage mechanisms, showcasing the significance of spaceborne monitoring for critical infrastructure.

Abstract
The Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine collapsed on June 6th, 2023. This study uses multi-temporal Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (MT-InSAR) data from 2017 to 2023 to analyze pre-collapse dam deformations. Findings indicate movements on the south side of the dam, suggesting potential damage mechanisms. The study highlights the value of spaceborne monitoring for critical infrastructure.
