Bam, Iran – Earthquake detection with the ASAR instrument of ENVISAT
The 2003 Bam, Iran earthquake was a major earthquake with a moment magnitude of 6.6, that caused a huge number of casualties as well as major destructions in Bam and the surrounding Kerman province. Due to continous observation from space it is possible to determine the geophysical processes involved not only by classical seismographs but also by Radar interferometry.

In this project the goal is to retrieve reliable information about the sea level change from 2004 to 2008 using ENVISAT data. Furthermore the main concepts for a software development and implementation shall be simulated. For this purpose a program has to be developed that is capable of converting the ENVISAT raw data into a matlab readable format, applying all necessary corrections given by the data itself and interpolate the data to retrieve an assumption for the past sea level change from 2004 to 2008.
