Australian Ground Motion

A free public map of how Australia's ground is moving, measured from Sentinel-1 satellite radar (InSAR). Current coverage: Surat Basin & Southern Queensland — 2.2 million measurement points across ~55,000 km², one seamless anchored mosaic validated against government reference data. Coverage grows every month; unlit areas are not yet processed. Click any point to inspect its history.

Trend classes are provisional — per-tile baselines make Accel/Decel patchy at tile edges; a uniform re-inversion is in progress. Velocity colours and motion filters are unaffected.
