Unsustainable practices of urbanization bring major implications for land and environment, and cause a dramatic increase of urban vulnerability to natural hazards. In Istanbul megacity, disaster risk reduction represents a challenging issue for urban managers. In this paper, we show the relevance of the space-borne Differential SAR Interferometry (DInSAR) technique as a tool for supporting risk management, and thus contributing to achieve the urban sustainability. To this aim, we use a dataset of high resolution SAR images collected by the TerraSAR-X satellite that have been processed through the advanced (multi-temporal) Small BAseline Subset  (SBAS)\u2014DInSAR technique, thus producing spatially-dense deformation velocity maps and associated time-series. Results allow to depict an up-to-date picture of surface deformations occurring in Istanbul, and thus to identify urban areas subject to potential risk. The joint analysis of remotely sensed measurements and ancillary data (geological and urban development information) provides an opportunity for city planners and land professionals to discuss on the mutual relationship between urban development policies and natural\/man-made hazards.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs71215842","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,12,9]],"date-time":"2015-12-09T07:06:30Z","timestamp":1449644790000},"page":"16519-16536","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":26,"title":["The Space-Borne SBAS-DInSAR Technique as a Supporting Tool for Sustainable Urban Policies: The Case of Istanbul Megacity, Turkey"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"7","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0174-5894","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fabiana","family":"Cal\u00f2","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for the Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment (IREA), National Research Council (CNR) of Italy, via Diocleziano 328, Napoli 80124, Italy"},{"name":"Department of Geomatic Engineering, Civil Engineering Faculty, Yildiz Technical University,  Esenler-Istanbul 34220, Turkey"}]},{"given":"Saygin","family":"Abdikan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geomatics Engineering, Engineering Faculty, Bulent Ecevit University, Zonguldak 67100, Turkey"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9407-7946","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tolga","family":"G\u00f6r\u00fcm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geography Department, Istanbul University, 34459 Laleli, Istanbul, Turkey"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7843-3565","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antonio","family":"Pepe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for the Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment (IREA), National Research Council (CNR) of Italy, via Diocleziano 328, Napoli 80124, Italy"}]},{"given":"Havvanur","family":"Kili\u00e7","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geomatic Engineering, Civil Engineering Faculty, Yildiz Technical University,  Esenler-Istanbul 34220, Turkey"},{"name":"Department of Geotechnic Engineering, Civil Engineering Faculty, Yildiz Technical University, Esenler-Istanbul 34220, Turkey"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1243-8299","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"F\u00fcsun","family":"Balik \u015eanli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geomatic Engineering, Civil Engineering Faculty, Yildiz Technical University,  Esenler-Istanbul 34220, Turkey"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,12,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Kraas, F., Aggarwal, S., Coy, M., and Mertins, G.
