Submeter Resolution Surface Rupture Topography From Legacy Aerial Photographs—A Test Case From the 1992 Landers Earthquake

Abstract The 1992 Mw 7.3 Landers earthquake in the Mojave Desert (California) provided exceptional observations of surface faulting in a large, continental earthquake. The U. S. Geological Survey obtained nadir angle, overlapping aerial photographs at 1:6,000 scale for the entire ∼ 85 km rupture len...
