ABSTRACTIn Italy, landslides are one of the main geological hazards. Sometimes urban areas are affected by deep-seated gravitational slope deformations (DGSDs) that can lead to a potentially catastrophic failure and trigger a secondary collateral landslide. In these cases, monitoring is important for early warning and risk reduction. In this study, we analyzed DGSDs, in particular, lateral spreads, and landslides in the inhabited areas of Ulassai, in eastern-central Sardinia. Starting from high-resolution geostructural and geomorphological surveys of lateral spread, integrated with high-resolution digital elevation models acquired by UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), we created geological 3D models of the slope deformations. To better understand the kinematics and temporal evolution of unstable slope deformation, a monitoring system, consisting of Space-borne Interferometric Persistent Scatter Synthetic Aperture Radar (PS-InSAR), GNSS antennas, tiltmeters, and extensometers, was performed. PS-InSAR analysis confirmed by GNSS periodic measurement identified downslope movement of up to 10 mm per year in the lateral spread. Continuous acquisition by extensometers and tiltmeter recorder displacement in large block inclinations and opening and closing of fractures since 2021. Integrated data analysis will be essential to define the threshold for a future 24/7 early-warning system.
