European Ground Motion Service (EGMS) products are ground motion velocity and displacement measurements over the EU countries provided by the ambitious project of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. The products consist of processed Sentinel-1 SAR images with the Multi-temporal Differential SAR Interferometry algorithms and are available for visualization and download. They include different measurements, velocity and displacement time series for both orbits, ascending and descending, the derived displacement vectors for the vertical and horizontal E-W components, and the projected vector along the slope. In this ongoing work, we aim to use these products in the R.stat environment to identify the active landslide deformations for the national scale of Romania. Preliminary results are promising as the identified areas in the eastern part of the country reveal critical landslide hot spots interacting with the urbanized built-up area and the transport infrastructure.
