I downsampled the data and set about modeling them, using the same tools I demoed on the InSAR course a couple of weeks back. There are a couple of possibilities. This model is of a steep, north-dipping fault plane (black rectangle) with a surface trace (blue line) located to the south.

And this is the other nodal plane, a shallow, south-dipping fault plane with a surface trace located to the north.

Data (left), model (center) and residual (right) displacements of the September 2023 Morocco earthquake. Fault plane is a black rectangle, projected surface fault trace is a blue line. This model is of a shallow, southward-dipping fault plane.
