The utilization of urban underground space (UUS) offers an effective solution to urban problems but may also negatively affect urban development. Therefore, UUS development needs better concerted guidelines to coordinate various urban systems and the multiple components of the underground world. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which should be viewed as important yardsticks for UUS development, do not explicitly mention urban underground space, although many of them are affected by both the positive and negative consequences of its development. To fill this gap, this review lays the foundations of relevant UUS concepts and uses exemplary cases to reveal that 11 out of 17 SDGs can be linked with UUS uses. These linkages also manifest that land administration, integrated planning, architectural design, and construction technology are critical dimensions for increasing the contributions of UUS to the realization of SDGs. To achieve multi-disciplinary synergies among these four critical dimensions, a collaborative approach framework based on spatial data infrastructure is required. Thus, this work provides academics and practitioners with a holistic view of sustainable UUS development.

利用城市地下空间（UUS）为解决城市问题提供了有效的解决方案，但也可能对城市发展产生负面影响。因此，UUS的发展需要更好的协调指导，以协调各种城市系统和地下世界的多个组成部分。应将可持续发展目标（SDG）视为UUS发展的重要标准，尽管许多目标都受到其发展的积极和消极影响，但并未明确提及城市地下空间。为了填补这一空白，本次审查奠定了UUS相关概念的基础，并通过举例说明了17个SDG中有11个可以与UUS的使用联系起来。这些联系还表明，土地管理，综合规划，建筑设计，建筑技术是提高UUS对实现SDG的贡献的关键尺度。为了在这四个关键维度之间实现多学科协同增效，需要基于空间数据基础架构的协作方法框架。因此，这项工作为学术界和从业者提供了关于UUS可持续发展的整体看法。
