Location map with seismicity, focal mechanisms and footprints of ALOS-2/PALSAR-2 data. Red lines mark active faults. Orange circles locate earthquake epicenters during 14–30 April. Red lines indicate geologic active fault traces by Nakata and Imaizumi (2002). Beach balls indicate focal mechanisms of earthquakes that are greater than M w 5.5 [from Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) database]. Large red beach ball indicates the focal mechanism of main shock (M w 7.0, JMA). Blue and red rectangles show the observation footprint of PALSAR-2 data for ascending and descending track, respectively. Black rectangular located the area in Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5 and Additional file 1: Figure 1. Red triangles located active volcanoes along the Beppu-Shimabara rift system. Red square is the location of Kumamoto City. Top-right inset indicates the study area (star) on Japan. Black lines with arrows in the inset indicate the location of MTL and its move direction
