Map of the mean displacement velocity and interferogram showing uplift in south Landau. (A) Map of the mean displacement velocity (cm/year) over Landau. Mean displacement velocity (cm/year) in the LOS direction (positive towards the satellite) over the city of Landau (Germany) between 8 July 2013 and 9 April 2014 as obtained from the PS-InSAR results. White lines: profiles of Figure 2. White stars: location of the time series of Figure 3. White circle: location of the power plant. (B) Interferogram showing uplift in south Landau. Uplift centred on the geothermal power plant between 24 February 2014 and 7 March 2014 as obtained from the InSAR analysis. The white cross marks the power plant location. One colour cycle corresponds to a deformation of 1.55 cm in the LOS direction (positive towards the satellite). Here, the displacement reaches a maximum of 2 cm.
