2. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Contents • Chapter 1: Brief Introduction • Chapter 2: Traditional Ways of Land Resource Management • Chapter 3: Modern Ways of Land Resource Management • Chapter 4: Summary

3. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 1: Brief Introduction Quarter 1.1 Brief Introduction of Land Resource Management • Land resource management in China is very important. • This research field has a long history. It starts at Xia Dynasty, and keeps developing since then. In ancient times it mainly concentrated on: • Cadastral Management • Land Property Rights • Land Use Planning • Land Development • Prevention and Mitigation of Land Disaster

4. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 1: Brief Introduction Quarter 1.1 Brief Introduction of Land Resource Management There are many aspects of it nowadays: • (1) Land Institution and Policy • (2) Real Estate Management and Land Economics • (3) Land Property Rights and Cadastral Management • (4) Land Evaluation • (5) Land Use Planning • (6) Land Consolidation and Reclamation • (7) Land Information Technology ……

5. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 1: Brief Introduction Quarter 1.2 Brief Introduction of GIS • GIS is short for Geographic Information System, it is a new-born technology. • GIS is a combination of computer technology, mathematics, remote sensing, geographic science, statistic, surveying and mapping and many other fields of science.

6. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 2: Traditional Ways of Land Resource Management Traditional ways of Land Resource Management in China: • Measure length by rope in ancient times, measuring tape and some other instruments in modern times. • Draw pictures on paper by hand using rulers and pens. • Keep paper files only to manage land rights and collect land tax. • Traditional engineering methods for land developing and reclamation. …… It has a lot disadvantages: • Time delay • Easy to forge related information • Unsustainable ……

7. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 3: Modern Ways of Land Resource Management Apply new technologies (especially GIS) in land resource management. GIS has been applied in many aspects of land resource management: • (1) Land Monitoring and Regulation • (2) Land Use Planning • (3) Land Evaluation ……

8. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 3: Modern Ways of Land Resource Management Modern ways of Land Resource Management in China: • Obtain data by RS and sophisticated instruments nowadays. • Draw pictures on computers. • Storage and process spatial information by certain software on computers. • Show in 2D and 3D. • Keep digital files and paper files at the same time. • Modern engineering methods for land resource protecting, developing and reclamation. ……

9. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 3: Modern Ways of Land Resource Management It has many advantages: • Real-Time • Difficult to forge related information • More sustainable than before …… It also has many disadvantages now: • Difficult to get the correct information of every detail (because of low resolution, confusion of interpret spectrum and many other reasons). …… • It still has a lot to improve. In the future, it will improve in many aspects.

10. Henan Polytechnic University Surveying and Mapping Engineering Chapter 4: Summary • Land resource management in China is very important. • GIS is a new and useful technology. • Applying GIS to land resource management is a good way to do the manage work.
