This image may not be used to state or imply ESA endorsement of any company or product Ground displacement due to earthquake, Italy. Satellite radar map of the region of central Italy struck by an earthquake on 24th August 2016 . Scientists from Italy's Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment combined Sentinel-1 radar acquisitions over central Italy from before and after the earthquake: 15 August, 21 August and 27 August 2016. The result shows vertical ground subsidence, reaching about 20 centimetres in correspondence to the Accumoli area, and lateral movement of up to 16 centimetres. The blue line indicates the location of the fault trace.
