Aircraft motion
Aircraft motion can usually be identified by banding in the ampcor azimuth offsets perpendicular to the flight track. When the motion is not removed sufficiently during processing, they can cause corresponding phase variations in the interferogram. The additional procesing step of residual motion correction tend to be more effective at removing periodic aircraft motion.
