As in the name itself, RMT provides rates of ground motion when fast movements occur (in order of centimeters/meters). In contrast with SAR Interferometry, which uses the phase value, RMT extracts motion rates from the amplitude value of radar images.
Based on images acquired by the Sentinel-1A satellite over Nepal, before and after the quake of the 25th April 2015, RMT maps in both the line-of-sight (range) and azimuth (north-south) directions are shown below.
