Abstract

This paper utilizes TMETM remote sensing images of Yining, Xinjiang from 1990, as well as RS technology to revise and enhance the images and improve images fusion. On the basis of field surveys, remote sensing image interpretation signs of the study area were set up. We extracted information from the combination of automatic classification and visual interpretation, then we established a data on the base of land use / land cover (LUCC)of 1990, 2000, 2010, from which we extracted and analyzed the information of Yining’s land use changes. Studies have shown that the rapid growth in demand of construction land and the reduce of agriculturalacreage in the past 20 years in Yining increase the pressure on protection for land resource. Meanwhile, land ecological environment quality has declined, and the relationship between the environments has partially deteriorated.
