    摘要: The invention concerns a method (1) to detect deformations of, and/or damages to, structures permanently arranged on the earth's surface. In particular, said method (1) comprises: acquiring (11) georeferencing data indicative of geographical reference positions of predefined points of interest of a given structure to be monitored permanently arranged on the earth's surface, wherein said predefined points of interest are representative of a 3D geometry of the given structure without deformations and damages; acquiring (12) a SAR image of an area of the earth's surface where the given structure is arranged, wherein said SAR image is associated with a given reference coordinate system; transforming (13) the geographical reference positions of the predefined points of interest into corresponding expected positions in the given reference coordinate system associated with the acquired SAR image so as to carry out a reprojection of the 3D geometry of the given structure without deformations and damages on the acquired SAR image; identifying (14) in the acquired SAR image the predefined points of interest of the given structure; determining (15) actual positions in the given reference coordinate system associated with the acquired SAR image of the predefined points of interest identified in said SAR image; making a comparison (16) between the expected positions of the predefined points of interest and the corresponding actual positions in the acquired SAR image; and detecting (17) one or more deformations of, and/or one or more damages to, said given structure on the basis of the comparison made.
