Space-borne interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is a useful technique to generate or update digital elevation models (DEMs) over large regions. Specifical InSAR missions for DEM generation/update currently work in bistatic mode. The bistatic InSAR satellites have a low temporal coverage, causing the difficulty to keep DEM products up to date. InSAR satellites working in a repeat-pass mode can offer numerous data sources with a short temporal coverage, offering a great potential to frequently update DEMs to keep DEM valid with time. However, the accuracy of repeat-pass InSAR DEMs u...
