This paper presents a novel strategy for dam monitoring by repeat-pass SAR interferometry. The proposed approach couples sub band / sub-aperture decomposition prior to the GLRT-LQ detector. This method is tested with high-resolution spaceborne InSAR images provided by the TanDEM-X and the TerraSAR-X satellites.
