It is suitable for the processing of small areas – from 1 up to a maximum of 100 km²  - for which it is mandatory to extract as much information as possible.
Typical applications are:

• individual landslide/sinkhole
• urban planning, for small urban areas,
• plants.

A local area analysis is very detailed and the measurement density can reach 1,000 PS/km² within urban areas.

Who could benefit from such an analysis?

• The public administration sector in the field of urban planning and territory surveillance.
• The construction sector for the monitoring of major works and plants. The analysis is a useful tool in assessing land deformation as a consequence of  works.
• Insurance companies can make use of a local area analysis to determine risk and ascertain responsibility for damage to facilities.
• The research groups for the investigation of ground displacements.
