Groundwater overexploitation is the main cause of city surface deformation. In Siping City, groundwater level had decreased since 1980 due to large-scale exploitation of groundwater. Subsequently, the level began to rise under governance while shown a declining trend in the whole Siping area. This paper obtained surface deformation of Siping City from 2017 to 2024 using 36 Sentinel-1B satellite images and 88 Sentinel-1A satellite images based on SBAS-InSAR and analysed the effect of groundwater on deformation. The results indicated that uplift occurs in the centre of the urban area with a maximum average velocity of about 5 mm/y and there were two main subsidence zones during these two time periods with average subsidence velocities of about 3 mm/y and 1.7 mm/y. Groundwater levels showed a high correlation with surface deformation, with rising the levels leading to surface uplift and falling the levels leading to surface subsidence.
