Abstract
Landslide is one type of slope movement, where the slope movement includes creep. Although creep movement does not have an impact on the risk of loss of life, this creep movement takes place constantly and invisible which has an impact on economic losses. In this study, a time-series monitoring was carried out from 2018 to 2020 to see the movement of the slopes in the study area using the Multi-Temporal Interferometry Synthetic Aperture Radar (MTInSAR). A time series method from Sentinel 1A/B data, which includes Trangkil Sejahtera Housing (PTS), Soegijapranata Catholic University (UNIKA), and 17 August 1945 University (UNTAG) in Semarang City, Indonesia. The results of data processing indicate that there are slope movement in the target location, namely Trangkil Sejahtera and Selorejo Housing (southwest of UNIKA). Based on BPBD 2021 data, landslides occurred in the Trangkil Baru Housing Center (to the north of PTS) and the Garang River landslide channel west of Selorejo. This shows that there is a link between crawling in 2018-2020 and landslides in 2021. Although the use of satellite data has some drawbacks, the results can be taken into consideration in building an early warning system and reducing losses due to landslides.

According to data from the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Semarang City in 2016-2020, there was an increase in landslide disasters

Summary
Indonesia is a tropical country with high rainfall every year. Heavy rainfall is one of the triggers for landslides. The phenomenon of landslides often occurs in Indonesia, including the city of Semarang. Important parameters in the analysis of landslide events are geological conditions, topography, land use, rainfall, water and drainage, and the influence of human activities (Naryanto et al, 2019). According to data from the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Semarang City in 2016-2020, there was an increase in landslide disasters. In 2020, there were around 124 landslide occurrence points in the Semarang City area. Landslide or soil creep is a general term used for high-risk ground motion on unstable slopes. Landslides and creeps include slope movement, but the speed is different. Damage to roads and buildings due to crawling in certain areas can take place every year, this results in economic losses to the affected community
