Statistically homogeneous pixel (SHP) selection is an important process in the distributed scatterer interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DS-InSAR) approach. However, prevalent methods struggle to appropriately balance the efficiency and accuracy of selection. To solve this problem, the authors of this study improved the Hypothesis Test of Confidence Interval (HTCI) to propose an adaptive method to select the level of saliency and confidence interval for the HTCI, called Adp-HTCI. The proposed method can accurately select homogeneous pixels while inheriting the high efficiency of the HTCI. Once homogeneous pixels have been chosen, the eigenvalue decomposition of the covariance matrix is used to optimize their phase and perform temporal processing. We used the proposed method along with data on 31 scenes from the Sentinel-1 satellite from 2 June 2021 to 28 May 2022 to monitor the deformation of the surface of the fire zone in the Sikeshu coalfield. The selection results of homogeneous pixels indicate that the proposed Adp-HTCI algorithm can increase the number of selected homogeneous pixels while ensuring the accuracy of the selection results, thereby enhancing the estimation accuracy and reliability of subsequent parameter solving. The DS-InSAR results showed that the cumulative maximum subsidence in the study area within a year reached—138 mm and the point density used by the DS-InSAR approach was 17.28 times higher than that used by the StaMPS approach. The results of cross-analysis with the results of StaMPS verified the accuracy of the DS-InSAR-based approach.
