Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Intensive underground mining leads to land subsidence and collapses. The paper shows an integrated approach to monitoring on the example of the Karaganda coal basin, including calculations of the displacement of rocks, leveling of profile lines and satellite radar interferometry. It is proved that satellite radar interferometry provides reliable measurement results of surface subsidence in mining areas and can be used for monitoring.
