We use Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) data to derive continuous maps for three orthogonal components of the co‐seismic surface displacement field due to the 1999 M w 7.1 Hector Mine earthquake in southern California. Vertical and horizontal displacements are both predominantly antisymmetric with respect to the fault plane, consistent with predictions of linear elastic models of deformation for a strike‐slip fault. Some deviations from symmetry apparent in the surface displacement data may result from complexity in the fault geometry.
Fialko et al. (2001) studied this question.
