Abstract
Based on the data of Landsat remote sensing images in 2005 and 2015 in Weihai City, this paper referenced China coastal zone land use classification system and used the Arcgis10.2 software to construct the land use database by visual interpretation , and then analyzed the spatial and temporal changes of land use in Weihai City for 10 years. The results showed that: (1) The total area of the land use in Weihai City had been enlarged, mainly by mariculture expansion with land area of 11.3 thousand hectares.(2) The land use changing rates were fast, among which the unused land attitude was the largest at 24.85%.(3) The area of these land uses change was increased, which are forest land, urban construction land and the independent industrial and mining and traffic construction land. While the arable land and grass land areas decreased. (4) The main driving forces were its economic development and its national economic and social development planning. May this paper provide some references to its regional land use sustainable development.
