ABSTRACT : Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) has emerged as a critical tool for detecting ground deformation in earthquake-prone regions. This paper presents a comprehensive study on geotechnical hazard assessment using InSAR technology, focusing on its capabilities to monitor ground subsidence, surface displacement, and fault movement with millimeter-level accuracy. The study evaluates case examples from various seismically active zones, discusses integration with geotechnical and geological datasets, and highlights the technology's role in disaster risk reduction. The analysis confirms that InSAR-based monitoring significantly enhances the precision of hazard maps, enabling proactive mitigation strategies in vulnerable regions.
