Remote Sensing Analysis on the Regional Differentiation of Land Types in the Loess Plateau of the North Shaanxi Province
The study area is situated in the Loess Plateau of the north Shaanxi province
with severely dissected landform
diffcult transportations
irrational land-use
serious soil erosion and frail ecological environment. In order to change this situation
it is necessary to survey the land types and their distribution
which is the basis to evaluate and utilize the land resources rationally.In this paper
the methods and procedure of surveying land types and mapping (1: 100000) using TM imagery are discussed. The distributing regularity of the land type and the factors of forming the regional differentiation of the land types in this area are analyzed. Finally
the regionalization of land types and the measures to manage the regions are put forward.
