Abstract:Down-sampling of InSAR displacement fields helps to remarkably improve inversion efficiency of inversion of coseismic slip distribution and fault geometry. However, how to keep balance between removing noise and redundant information and retaining more global and local key displacement information is a challenge to traditional down-sampling methods. For this reason, we here proposed a downsampling method constrained by multiple thresholds of variance, deformation gradient and coherence for coseismic deformation fields, which was verified with three strong events associated with complex fault systems. The result suggests that this method can effectively eliminate low coherence points, preserve critical deformation details, and has lower sampling rate, better robustness and stronger constraints on the linear distribution of deformation.
