Cover Story: This paper presents a study on applying satellite Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technology for the remote monitoring of road bridges and interpreting the results from a structural standpoint. The study focuses on the multi-span prestressed concrete A22 Po River Bridge in Italy. It utilises X-Band COSMO-SkyMed SAR images acquired over eight years. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of InSAR-based SHM in detecting temperature-induced displacements and identifying different bridge spans simply by studying the sign of the correlation between displacements and temperature variation. They also highlighted an unexpected behaviour in a bridge portion previously retrofitted to prevent scour. These results are significant with a view to using satellite InSAR-based bridge health monitoring on a large scale. View this paper
