Monitoring method for water level in subsidence water bodies in mining areas using multi-source satellite observations by Yufan XU, Shaogang LEI, Yongqiao SUN, Xingchen YANG, Cangjiao WANG

“…The results show that: ① The water level monitoring accuracy of ICESat-2 satellite altimeter is better, which can serve as the basis for evaluating and correcting GEDI data, and GEDI has a greater advantage in monitoring the quantity of water bodies; ② There is a significant correlation between ICESat-2 and GEDI observation datasets, and the insufficient number of surface cross observation points has a small impact on the fitting of the regression relationship. The use of regression models can effectively correct the water level observation data of GEDI satellites, reducing the average error, average absolute error, and root mean square error of water level measurement by 69.74%, 56.58%, and 50.56% respectively compared to before correction; ③ By integrating the ICESat-2 and GEDI observation datasets, high coverage and monitoring accuracy were demonstrated in water level monitoring, with a monitoring water coverage rate of 88.89% overall. …”
