The Xuyong-Gulin (Xugu) Expressway, located along the southern margin of the Sichuan Basin, faces complex geological conditions, with its safe operation threatened by geologic hazards. Therefore, the identification and analysis of geologic hazards along the expressway holds great significance. Interferometric synthetic aperture Radar (InSAR) technique enjoys the advantages of all-weather, all-time observation capabilities, wide coverage, and mm-scale surface deformation monitoring, playing an important role in wide-field landslide detection and monitoring. Based on this, this study processed the Sentinel-1 ascending and descending datasets from February 2017 to September 2020 using the small baselines subset (SBAS) InSAR technique. As a result, the surface deformation rates along the expressway were determined, and 18 landslides were identified. The analysis indicates that the deformations of landslides are related to anthropogenic activities. The analytical results also reveal that the combination of ascending and descending datasets allows for more accurate identification of landslide distribution. With the continuous data accumulation and technological development, InSAR is expected to play an increasingly important role in the prevention and control of geologic disasters.
