Research on geological hazard characteristics and susceptibility of the Duku Highway based on SBAS-InSAR and improved spatiotemporal clustering.

The high-altitude Duku Highway is characterized by complex terrain changes and frequent geological hazards, which severely impact the lives of local residents and the sustainable development of the regional economy. The lack of understanding of terrain deformation, coupled with scarce foundational observation data, makes it challenging to apply mainstream susceptibility assessment methods such as slope modeling and causality analysis. Consequently, this study utilizes Sentinel-1 A data and employs the SBAS-InSAR technique to extract and analyze the deformation characteristics of 184 hazard areas along the Duku Highway over nearly three years.
