The Small BAseline Subset (SBAS) approach is a differential synthetic aperture radar interferometry (DIFSAR) technique that allows analyzing deformation phenomena affecting both extended area and localized structures, by exploiting the phase difference of SAR image pairs characterized by small baselines. In this work we process a large set of ERS-1/2 data, acquired from ascending and descending orbits, at both small and large scale resolution and extend the obtained time series with available ENVISAT acquisitions. The results, relevant to the Napoli Bay area (Italy), are compared with geodetic and GPS data in order to achieve a quantitative analysis of the SABS algorithm performances
