Abstract: It is easily affected for the three-dimensional deformation field model of GPS-InSAR data fusion by the gross error of the observation value. The weighting method based on the Helmert variance component estimation cannot be used to resist gross errors and the calculation efficiency is low. In view of this, a method based on the GPS-InSAR fusion solution model for robust vertical variance component estimation is proposed. The variance component estimation method and the robust estimation theory are used to calculate the 3D deformation field effectively by optimizing the classification of the observed values and carrying out the weight selection iteration to allocate the weight accurately. Experimental results show that it is effectively resisted the influence of gross errors in observations by this way. The accuracy of 3D deformation field inversion and the efficiency of 3D deformation field calculated point by point is effectively improved.
