Abstract
Recent methodological progress, Co-Registration of
Optically Sensed Images and Correlation, outlined here, makes it
possible to measure horizontal ground deformation from optical
images on an operational basis, using the COSI-Corr software
package. In particular, its sub-pixel capabilities allow for accurate
mapping of surface ruptures and measurement of co-seismic
offsets. We retrieved the fault rupture of the 2005 Mw 7.6
Kashmir earthquake from ASTER images, and we also present
a dense mapping of the 1992 Mw 7.3 Landers earthquake of
California, from the mosaicking of 30 pairs of aerial images
