Deformation monitoring by multi-baseline synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry is so far the only imaging-based method to assess millimeter-level deformation over large areas from space. Past research mostly focused on optimal deformation parameters retrieval on a pixel-basis. Only until recently, the first demonstration of object-based urban infrastructures monitoring by fusing SAR interferometry (InSAR) and the semantic classification labels derived from optical images was presented
