BGS ArcGIS

 

The European Ground Motion Service (EGMS) uses Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (InSAR) data from the Sentinel-1 satellite to detect and measure ground movement at millimetre scale. The dataset is updated annually and shows how the Earth's surface is changing in response to tectonics, climate change, and human activity such as groundwater extraction.
