During the process of economic growth, the industry structure transforms at different developing sections and that
industrial composition as well as each department interior demand for land resources would reflect on land-use structure
reform. This paper takes Hubei as the research zone, through a consecutive time sequence of 10 years period (1996-2005)
just before and after the 1 plus 8 Eastern Hubei Metropolitan Area project, a quantitative study of the correlation between
the industry structure and land-use structure is made based on the entropy theory. According to the classification of
industrial composition, the land-use structure here is also redefined into four types as Land Use for Primary Industry,
Land Use for Secondary Industry, Land Use for Tertiary Industry, and Land Use for Potential Reserve, in the aim that it
should model new methods for researching the relationship of industry structure and land-use structure, and the instinct
driving force would be presented more evidently at the same time. The outcomes indicate that the change of land-use
structure has close relationship with the structure of industry composition; the trend of information entropy in Hubei
mostly keeps increasing during the past 10 years which predicating the symmetrical degree of land-use structure is
gradually built; and Eastern Hubei Metropolitan Area is of favorable power far superiority other units within province in
promoting regional development, yet land-use structure adjustments are still not stable and a optimal mode of land use
needs further approach.
