The surface rupture investigation and disaster assessment of large earthquakes are important in earthquake emergency response. The rapid data acquisition and analysis of satellite images after earthquakes are of great importance for improving the timeliness of emergency response. After the Menyuan Ms6.9 earthquake, we quickly acquired GF-7 satellite images on January 8, 2022, and identified the overall distribution characteristics, structural style, and dislocation scale of the surface rupture, which provided an important reference for earthquake emergency response and field investigation. According to the deep analysis of high-resolution satellite images, the Menyuan Ms6.9 earthquake generated two co-seismic surface rupture zones, of which the north branch mainly developed along the western part of the Lenglongling fault, and the recognizable surface rupture zone is approximately 19 km-long. The south branch with a length of 2.3 km was distributed along the eastern part of the Tuolaishan fault. The co-seismic surface rupture produced a series of sinistral faulted geomorphic features such as gullies, diluvium, roads, ice layers, etc., and the maximum sinistral displacement was about 2.2 m. Deformation structures such as bulges, tension depressions and oblique tension fissures were formed along the surface fracture zone. The distribution of the latest co-seismic rupture coincided with the historical rupture, which reflected the in-situ rupture characteristics of strong earthquakes along the Lenglongling fault zone. Its seismic risk needed to be highly concerned and deserved in-depth study. This application work shows that the great potential and advantages of the China High-Resolution Satellites in major earthquake emergency.
