Combining two Sentinel-1 radar scans from 20 August and 26 August 2016, this interferogram shows changes that occurred during the 24 August earthquake that struck central Italy. The seven coloured interferometric ‘fringes’ correspond to about 20 cm of surface deformation.

Sentinel-1’s pass over Italy on 26 August did not cover the entire area affected. Another acquisition planned for 27 August will cover the entire earthquake zone.
