About this dataset

NOTE: this is exercise data and not representative of real events. The original data is from the earthquake in Turkey February 2023. Date of Image: 5/21/2026 Summary: Scientists working with Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and California Institute of Technology, both in Pasadena, California, created this displacement map with measurements of the surface displacements, in the radar line-of-sight, caused by the major earthquake in Turkiye. NOTE: The line-of-sight displacement (LOS) measurement is relative, and the dataset has not been calibrated to any ground location so there is a bias of the reference level, which is unknown. This data has not yet been validated. This displacement map should be used as guidance to identify areas of significant ground displacement, and may be less reliable over snow-covered and vegetated areas. SENTINEL-1: The map was derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images from the Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellites, operated by the European Space Agency (ESA). The team computed the interferometric difference (interferogram or interferometric SAR) between the post-event and pre-event images on the Sentinel-1 ascending (satellite moving north) track 14. The interferometric SAR (InSAR) measures the component of surface displacement in the line-of-sight (LOS) between the ground and the satellite, which is at an angle of about 40 degrees from the vertical and slightly south of due west. Suggested Use: Unwrapped Interferogram (WRP): Phase map showing relative ground deformation where each "fringe" or concentric pattern indicates a 20 cm of displacement along the line-of-sight of the satellite (LOS). The color pattern from the inside to the outside of fringe indicates the direction of the ground movement. If the ground move towards the satellite, the color variation goes from ROYGB (Red->Orange->Yellow->Green->Blue), whereas, BGYOR (Blue->Green->Yellow->Orange->Red) represents ground movement away from the satellite. The dataset has not been calibrated to any ground location so there is a bias of the reference level, which is unknown. This data has not yet been validated. This displacement map should be used as guidance to identify areas of significant ground displacement, and may be less reliable over snow-covered and vegetated areas. Across Track Displacement (RNG): Red colors indicate increasing displacement towards the West, while the Blue areas indicate increasing displacement towards the East Along Track Displacement (AZI): Red colors indicate increasing displacement towards the West, while the Blue areas indicate increasing displacement towards the East NOTE: Small vertical displacements have also occurred, but the primary surface displacements were in the horizontal plane.

ARIA Sentinel-1 Displacement Maps for the June 2026 Venezuela Earthquake

Displacement maps from Sentinel-1 ascending track 033, acquired on 2026/06/25 Dates of Images: June 24, 2026; June 25, 2026 Summary: EARTHQUAKE OVERVIEW (Source: USGS): On June 24, 2026, northwestern and central Venezuela was struck by two large strike-slip earthquakes occurring just 39 seconds apart: Foreshock: Magnitude 7.2 at 22:04:33 (UTC), located 23 km SE of Yumare, Venezuela Mainshock: Magnitude 7.5 at 22:05:11 (UTC), located 28 km SE of Yumare, Venezuela (10.435°N, 68.472°W) Scientists working with the Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and California Institute of Technology, both in Pasadena, California, created these displacement maps with measurements of surface displacements caused by the earthquake sequence. The maps were derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images from the Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellites, operated by the European Space Agency (ESA). The team computed the phase difference between a post-event image acquired on June 25, 2026 (reference scene) with a pre-event image acquired on June 18, 2026 (secondary scene), on Sentinel-1 ascending (satellite moving north) track 033. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) measures ground movement toward or away from the satellite. Sentinel-1 views the ground from the side at about 40° from vertical. On ascending passes, it travels slightly west of north (heading ≈ 348° or −12°) and looks to the east. On descending passes, it travels slightly southwest (heading ≈ 192°) and looks to the west. The full dataset covers an area centered on the earthquake epicenter. Each pixel measures approximately 30 meters across. Suggested Use: Line-of-Sight Displacement (Venezuela_S1_A033_20260618_20260625_UNW.tif): Unwrapped phase data converted to metric displacement along the radar line-of-sight. Positive values (blue) indicate ground movement towards from the satellite (uplift and/or westward motion), while negative values (red) indicate movement away from the satellite (subsidence and/or eastward motion). Units: meters. The dataset has been re-referenced to a stable point at coordinates (-68.5435°, 10.9696°). Areas of low coherence and water bodies have been masked. Wrapped Phase (Venezuela_S1_A033_20260618_20260625_WRP.tif): Wrapped phase map showing relative ground deformation where each "fringe" or complete color cycle represents approximately 2.8 cm of displacement along the line-of-sight (half the Sentinel-1 C-band wavelength of 5.56 cm). The color progression from (outward to inward) red, orange, yellow, green, and blue indicates ground is moving away from the satellite, blue, green,yellow, orange, and red means ground is moving towards the satellite. This visualization is useful for identifying the spatial pattern and magnitude of deformation. Range Offset (Venezuela_S1_A033_20260618_20260625_RNG.tif): Across-track (range direction) pixel offsets measured through amplitude cross-correlation. This represents ground displacement perpendicular to the satellite flight path, predominantly capturing east-west motion. Positive values (blue) indicate westward movement, negative values (red) indicate eastward movement. Units: meters. Water bodies and areas outside the valid data frame have been masked. Interferometric Coherence (Venezuela_S1_A033_20260618_20260625_COH.tif): Measures the similarity of the radar phase between the two SAR acquisitions, indicating the reliability of the interferometric phase used to estimate ground displacement. Values range from 0 (decorrelated, unreliable) to 1 (highly correlated, reliable). Data Sources and Satellite Specifications: Water masking: ESA World Cover 2021 land cover dataset was used to mask permanent water bodies Orbit direction: Ascending (A) - satellite moving north Track number: 033 Wavelength: 5.56 cm (C-band) Spatial resolution: 30 meters Reference point: -68.5435°E, 10.9696°N Temporal baseline: 7 days (June 18-25, 2026) Caveats: The InSAR ground displacement results posted here are preliminary results, primarily intended to aid field response and provide rapid assessment of earthquake-induced surface deformation. These preliminary products may or may not be suitable for detailed scientific analysis without further validation. This displacement map should be used as guidance to identify areas of significant ground displacement, and may be less reliable over snow-covered and vegetated areas, steep terrain, or regions that experienced surface changes between acquisitions.

ARIA Damage Proxy Map (Copernicus Sentinel-1) for the Türkiye Earthquakes, February 2023

Date of Image: 2/10/2023 Date of Next Image: Unknown Summary: 2/10/2023 (ARIA, Copernicus Sentinel-1) The Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and California Institute of Technology in Southern California created this Damage Proxy Map (DPM) depicting areas that are likely damaged by the large earthquakes (Feb. 06, 2023) in Turkiye (Turkey) and Syria. The map was derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images on Feb. 10, 2023 by the Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellites operated by the European Space Agency (ESA). The pre-event images were taken from Sep. 19, 2022 to Jan. 29, 2022). Suggested Use: Standard Version: The color variation from pale yellow to red indicates increasingly more significant surface change (drop in radar reflection coherence). Preliminary validation was done by comparing with high-resolution optical imagery and media reports. NOTE: This damage proxy map could be used as a guidance to identify damaged areas, and may be less reliable over vegetated and mountainous areas. Scattered pixels over vegetated areas may be false positives, and a lack of colored pixels over vegetated areas may not mean no damage. Satellite/Sensor: Copernicus Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Resolution: 30 meters Credits: Sentinel-1 data were accessed through the Copernicus Open Hub and the Alaska Satellite Facility server. The product contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2022-2023), processed by ESA and analyzed by the NASA-JPL/Caltech ARIA team in collaboration with Earth Observatory of Singapore - Remote Sensing Lab (EOS-RS).

Samos Izmir Earthquake: Damage Proxy Map, Mar 2020

# ARIA Damage Proxy Map, Izmir, Turkey Earthquake The Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and California Institute of Technology, both in Pasadena, California, created this Damage Proxy Map (DPM) depicting areas that are likely damaged by the recent Mw 7.0 (October 30, 2020) earthquake beneath the Aegean Sea between Samos, Greece and Izmir, Turkey. The map was derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images on October 30, 2020 by the Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellites operated by the European Space Agency (ESA). The pre-event images were taken before (October 18, 2020 and October 24, 2020) the earthquake. The image covers an area of 337 by 175 kilometers (210 by 108 miles), shown by the large red polygon. Each pixel measures about 30 meters across. The color variation from yellow to red indicates increasingly more significant surface change. Preliminary validation was done by comparing with the Media reports. This damage proxy map should be used as guidance to identify damaged areas, and may be less reliable over vegetated areas. For example, the scattered colored pixels over vegetated areas may be false positives, and the lack of colored pixels over vegetated areas does not necessarily mean no damage. This map is most sensitive to building damage, but small scale change or partial structural damage may not be detected by this map. Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data, processed by ESA. Analyzed by the NASA-JPL/Caltech ARIA team. This task was carried out at JPL funded by NASA. The products (KMZ and GeoTIFF files) are available to download at For more information about ARIA, visit: **More map details and files:** **NOTE for KMZ users:** After opening the KMZ file, please uncheck the "Compress" option in the "Texture Colors" section in the "3D View" tab under the menu "Google Earth Pro > Preference..." (Mac) or "Tools > Options..." (Windows). After unchecking the "Compress" option, Google Earth needs to be restarted. If the Compress option is on, some red pixels may appear as greenish dull color.
