- Aim
- Catalog multi-year interferometric SAR (InSAR) ground velocity fields and line-of-sight (LOS) displacement time series to evaluate precursory slope creep prior to the August 2026 failure.

- Search method
- Query COMET LiCSAR portal for Sentinel-1 Ascending Frame 085A_05315_131313 and Descending Frame 019D_05120_131313 covering northern Rasuwa and Gyirong. Retrieve calibrated cumulative displacement time series and line-of-sight mean velocity rasters.
- Criteria
Criterion Sentinel-1 InSAR processing (LiCSAR/LiCSBAS). Frames covering Trishuli, Langtang, and Gyirong valleys (2019-2026). - Coverage
- Multi-year millimetric surface deformation rates, identifying slow-moving rock slopes and pre-failure slope acceleration along the gorge.
- Stopping rule
- Exhaust processed LiCSAR frame deliverables overlapping the hazard corridor.
- Result
1 geodetic InSAR deformation resource recovered across 2 assets: COMET LiCSAR Ascending and Descending frame LOS velocity grids and cumulative displacement time series.
