NICT developed the airborne X-band SAR system (Pi-SAR2) in 2008. It has polarimetric and
interferometric functions with high spatial resolution of 0.3 m. We demonstrated volcano
monitoring using DEM generated by single-pass interferometry function of Pi-SAR2. In this
paper we describe coherent change detection by repeat-pass interferometry function of Pi-
SAR2. We improved the repeatability of flight path by introducing the guideline system and
obtained high coherence image. In flight experiments we detected the footprint on the lawn …
