IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingHigh-precision measurement in low-coherence areas remains challenging for multitemporal synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR). For instance, over the regions covered by dense vegetation, InSAR merely provides sparse measurement points (MPs) due
