Processed InSAR images over the volcanoes of the East African Rift (NERC Grant NE/L013649/1)

This data set contains a set of 20,740 unwrapped, geocoded interferograms derived from Sentinel-1 InSAR scenes processed over 63 volcanoes within the East African Rift system. A full description of the dataset is provided in the accompanying READMe file. This data set was first published in Albino, F. & Biggs, J. (2020). Magmatic processes in the east African rift system: Insights from a 2015-2020 Sentinel-1 InSAR survey, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems.

Statement

The unwrapped interferograms presented here were automatically processed as part of the Centre for the Observation and Modelling of Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Tectonics (COMET) using the LiCSAR processor which builds on the Gamma SAR and Interferometry software. Time series analysis was carried out on all or a subset of the processed interferograms at each volcano. Further details are provided in the accompanying READMe file and in Albino, F. & Biggs, J. (2020)
