description The extraction of real geological environment information is a key factor in accurately evaluating the vulnerability to geological hazards. Yanghe Township is located in the mountainous area of western Sichuan and lacks geological survey data. Therefore, it is important predict the spatial and temporal development law of landslide debris flow in this area and improve the effectiveness and accuracy of monitoring changes in landslide debris flow, this article proposes a method for extracting information on the changes in landslide debris flows combined with NDVI variation, which is based on short baseline interferometry (SBAS-InSAR) and optical remote sensing interpretation. In this article, we present relevant maps based on six main factors: vegetation index, slope, slope orientation, elevation, topographic relief, and formation lithology. At the same time, different remote sensing images were compared to improve the accuracy of landslide debris flow sensitivity assessments. The research showed that the highest altitude of the region extracted by multi-source remote sensing technology is 2877 m, and the lowest is 630 m, which can truly reflect the topographic relief characteristics of the region. The pixel binary model’s lack of regional restrictions enables a more accurate estimation of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), bringing it closer to the actual vegetation situation. The study uncovered a bidirectional relationship between vegetation coverage changes and landslide deformation in the study area, revealing spatial–temporal evolution patterns. By employing multi-source remote sensing technology, the research effectively utilized changes in multi-period imagery and feature extraction methods to accurately depict the development process and distribution characteristics of landslide debris flow. This approach not only offers technical support but also provides guidance for evaluating the vulnerability of landslide debris flow in the region.
