Reviewer 1 Report
Congratulation for the excellent paper, there are only following points:
The abbreviation SBAS for Small Baseline Subset is not optimal due to the situation that SBAS is used for Satellite Augmentation System in case of Global Navigation Satellite System
Figure 3 and following: numbers according to the color scale are too small as well as the numbers and text in fig. 6, 8, 10, 11 and 13

Authors: We thank this reviewer for her/his very positive evaluation of our manuscript. Moreover, concerning her/his remark on the SBAS abbreviation, although we are conscious that this acronym has been used in different contexts, we prefer to keep it in the actual form because, in the InSAR framework, it undoubtedly identifies our MultiTemporal approach. To better clarify this issue we remark that the paper where for the first time we used the SBAS acronym for identifying the Small BAseline Subset InSAR approach (Berardino et al., 2002) - which is reported among the manuscript references - is nowadays very well known, with nearly 3000 citations (Google Scholar source).
