Prof. Rui Zhang received a B.Eng. degree in mechanical engineering from
the North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Zhengzhou,
Henan, China, in 2004, and the M.Eng. degree in geographic information
engineering and the Ph.D. degree in remote sensing from the Southwest Jiaotong
University, Chengdu, China, in 2008 and 2012, respectively. He is currently an
Associate Professor with the Faculty of Geosciences and Environmental
Engineering, Southwest Jiaotong University. From 2012 to 2014, he was a
Post-Doctoral Fellow with the Institute of Space and Earth Information Science,
The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong. His research interests include
the development of ground deformation monitoring and early warning systems,
fundamental study of microwave remote sensing, and synthetic aperture radar
interferometry. Prof. Zhang was a recipient of the Best Paper Award of the 2nd
International Workshop on Earth Observation and Remote Sensing Application, in
2012, and the Annual Excellent Paper Award of the Journal of Remote Sensing, in
2019.
Prof. Bing Yu currently works at the Department of Surveying and Mapping
Engineering, Southwest Petroleum University. He does research in Synthetic
Aperture Radar interferometry, High-resolution Remote Sensing, and the
application of these methodologies in environment and geological hazard
monitoring. Their current projects include ‘Monitoring Large Gradient Land
Subsidence and Infrastructure Deformations by L-band SAR Interferometry’, ‘Monitoring
large-gradient subsidence in flat-terrain urban areas by high-resolution time
series differential radar interferometry and subsidence analysis’, ‘Seasonal
decorrelation of electromagnetic waves in Radar Interferometry and its
mechanism’, ‘Landslide 3D deformation monitoring and prediction based on
multi-temporal DInSAR’, etc.
