Abstract:

The Brazilian urbanization process produced a complex urban space, with a variety of urban land use and cover as a result. The study of these forms through a classification system is essential, but most current systems don’t capture this complexity, condensing it. Urban forms are difficult to distinguish and classify, resulting in the need for a system with a high degree of detail, for a more accurate urban planning. The objective of this work is to propose a classification system for urban land use and cover, which can demonstrate the multiplicities through remote sensing, using data from CBERS 04A satellite. The methodology surveys the visual elements of remote sensing images, through visual interpretation, relating them to each proposed use and cover class. With this, a classification system was developed that covers the urban space in 17 classes, being an effective way to raise information about the different urban forms.

Abstract:

O trabalho objetiva realizar um diagnóstico ambiental na área urbana de Ilhéus - BA, determinando os conflitos de uso das terras através da avaliação do potencial de uso urbano. Para tal, foram utilizadas técnicas de geoprocessamento e sistemas de informações geográficas, que permitiu integração de dados ambientais. A base teórica metodológica que permitiu atribuir valores as variáveis ambientais utilizadas (geologia, geormorfologia, solo e, uso da terra) foi baseado nos estudos de avaliação de fragilidade ambiental e avaliação do potencial urbano de uso do solo. Como resultado foi obtido um mapa de potencial de uso urbano na escala 1: 30.000 que apresentou quatros classes de potencialidade de uso, a saber: áreas sem potencialidades; riscos; subutilizadas e; adequadas. Para gerar os dados conflitos de uso das terras para o perímetro urbano de Ilhéus foi realizado o cruzamento do mapa de potencial de uso urbano e uso atual das terras. Assim foi identificado que do total da área urbana de ilhéus que tem 10,89 km2, aproximadamente 22,96 % estão estabelecidas em áreas inadequadas, associado à APP, áreas geologicamente fragilizadas e até mesmo instáveis, como no caso das encostas. O mapa de potencial de uso do solo urbano classificou 29,56 km2 como inadequados para fins urbanos, que representa 65,35% da área de estudo. A B S T R A C T This study aims to conduct an environmental diagnostic in urban area of Ilheus - BA, determining conflicts of land use, through evaluation of the potential for urban use. For this, we used geoprocessing techniques and geographic information systems, allowing integration of environmental data. The theoretical basis of methodological which made it possible to assign values (weights) the environmental variables utilized (geology, geomorphology, soil and land use) was based on evaluation studies of environmental fragility and assessment of potential urban land use. How result was obtained a potential map of urban land use in scale 1: 30.000 who presented fours classes of potentiality of use (areas without potentialities; risks; underutilized, and appropriate). To generate the data use conflicts of lands for urban perimeter of Ilhéus, was conducted crossing information, of the map of potential urban use and the map of land use. Thus was identified that of total the urban area of Ilhéus that has 10.89 km2, approximately 22.96% are established in areas unsuitable associated with APP, geologically fragile areas and even unstable, as in the case of the slopes. The map of potential urban land use, demonstrated that 29.56 km2 as inappropriate for urban use, representing 65.35% of the study area. Keywords: Geoprocessing; urban potential; use and land use, environmental characterization.

Abstract:

Urban land use provides essential information about how land is utilized within cities, which is critical for land planning, urban renewal, and early warnings for natural disasters. Although existing studies have utilized multi-source perception data to acquire land use information quickly and at low cost, and some have integrated urban morphological indicators to aid in land use identification, there is still a lack of systematic discussion in the literature regarding the potential of three-dimensional urban morphology to enhance identification effectiveness. Therefore, this paper aims to explore how urban three-dimensional morphology can be used to improve the identification of urban land use types. This study presents an innovative approach called the UMH–LUC model to enhance the accuracy of urban land use identification. The model first conducts a preliminary classification using points of interest (POI) data. It then improves the results with a dynamic reclassification based on floor area ratio (FAR) measurements and a variance reclassification using area and perimeter metrics. These methodologies leverage key urban morphological features to distinguish land use types more precisely. The model was validated in the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration using random sampling, comparative analysis and case studies. Results demonstrate that the UMH–LUC model achieved an identification accuracy of 81.7% and a Kappa coefficient of 77.6%, representing an 11.9% improvement over a non-morphology-based approach. Moreover, the overall disagreement for UMH–LUC is 0.183, a reduction of 0.099 compared to LUC without urban morphology and 0.19 compared to EULUC-China. The model performed particularly well in identifying residential land, mixed-use areas and marginal lands. This confirms urban morphology’s value in supporting low-cost, efficient land use mapping with applications for sustainable planning and management.

Abstract:

Migration from rural area to urban area increases urban population. It increases and needs for settlements, leading to conversion of agricultural lands into settlement areas. Inconsistent land use compared with spatial planning causes change in land use. Spatial land use expansion can be monitored and predicted by modeling. NetLogo application is a software integrated with Agent-Based Modeling (ABM), which can be used to predict change of land use with various complex parameters. The present study used population growth as a parameter to predict change of land use of Makassar in 2050 based on 2017 land use classification map as the start of the prediction. The analysis result showed that the biggest change of land use happens to Settlement class which is 594.74 hectares and the smallest is Water Body class which is 8.76 hectares.

Abstract:

This paper proposes a method for remote sensing based land cover/land use classification of urban areas. The method consists of the following four main stages: feature extraction, feature coding, feature selection and classification. In the feature extraction stage, statistical, textural and Gabor features are computed within local image windows of different sizes and orientations to provide a wide variety of potential features for the classification. Then the features are encoded and normalized by means of the Self-Organizing Map algorithm. For feature selection a CART (Classification and Regression Trees) based algorithm was developed to select a subset of features for each class within the classification scheme at hand. The selected subset of features is not attached to any specific classifier. Any classifier capable of representing possible skewed and multi-modal feature distributions can be employed, such as multi-layer perceptron (MLP) or k-nearest neighbor (k-NN). The paper reports experiments in land cover/land use classification with the Landsat TM and ERS-1 SAR images gathered over the city of Lisbon to show the potentials of the proposed method.

Abstract:

Accurately identifying inefficient urban land is essential for urban regeneration and mining underutilized assets. Previous studies have primarily focused on examining the overall efficiency of land use without adequately considering the heterogeneity of urban land use types and comprehensive characteristics of urban quality. As a result, the spatial accuracy and precision of research findings have been relatively low. To address this gap, we developed a comprehensive method to identify inefficient urban lands for residential, commercial, and industrial use. The method integrated multi-source geographic data to quantitatively characterize the efficiency of different land use types considering six key dimensions, including building attribute, urban service, transportation condition, environmental quality, business performance, and production efficiency, utilized principal component analysis to reduce the multicollinearity and the dimensionality of the data, and identified land clusters with similar features that were inefficiently used by means of hierarchical clustering. By applying the method to Changsha, China, we validated its effectiveness. The results demonstrate that the method can accurately identify inefficient residential, commercial, and industrial land, with kappa coefficients of 0.71, 0.77, and 0.68, respectively. The identification results reveal the spatial distribution patterns of different types of inefficient land. Inefficient residential land is concentrated towards the city center, particularly in central areas. Inefficient commercial land is relatively evenly distributed, mainly outside the core commercial regions. Inefficient industrial land clusters towards the periphery, forming several agglomeration areas centered around industrial parks. By precisely identifying inefficient urban land and focusing on the key influencing factors, the proposed method enables the site selection of urban regeneration, site redevelopment evaluation, and optimization of urban resources.

Abstract:

Over the past twenty years, many US cities have seen urban revitalization and population changes associated with an increased desire for urban living among the affluent. As inner-city neighborhoods become gentrified, they are more likely to witness the construction of new buildings and homes, the conversion of industrial spaces to mixed-used developments, expanded access to mass transit, and the arrival of coffee shops and other urban amenities. In this review, we take stock of what is known about the impact of gentrification and land-use changes on neighborhood crime. We summarize research conducted since the period of urban revitalization that started in the 1990s as well as studies that have a quasi-experimental design. We find that gentrification and associated changes to land use tend to reduce crime in neighborhoods. Our findings are tempered by the need for greater conceptual clarity on how to measure when a neighborhood has gentrified and a clearer examination of the spatial displacement of crime. We conclude with a discussion on the need for criminologists to partner with urban planners to study how changes in the land use of cities can be made to generate crime reductions that benefit all places and, finally, detail some promising directions for future research.

Abstract:

Land use/land cover change (LULCC) is crucial for social and economic systems. For detecting LULCC, remote sensing technology has become crucial. This paper illustrated the use of remote sensing to monitor LULCC, with particular emphasis on urban planning and the ecological environment which is currently in the news, and the limitations of remote sensing. Remote sensing performs well in urban land cover change, urban growth analysis and urban heat island monitoring, giving these areas a effective way to solve problems. In ecological environment monitoring, it develops some new methods combined with computer science in vegetation monitoring. Meanwhile, more and more researchers focus on the wetland monitoring and ecosystem service evaluation. Remote sensing is anticipated to support the monitoring and study of LULCC in the future. This paper provides an overview of current study and developments in the application of remote sensing to track LULCC.

Abstract:

. Population growth, economic development and rural-urban migration have caused rapid expansion of urban areas and metropolitan regions in Turkey. The structure of urban administration and planning has faced different socio-economic and political challenges, which have hindered the structured and planned development of cities and regions, resulting in an irregular and uneven development of these regions. We conducted detailed comparative analysis on spatio-temporal changes of the identified seven land-use/cover classes across different regions in Turkey with the use of Corine Land Cover (CLC) data of circa 1990, 2000, 2006 and 2012, integrated with Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques. Here we compared spatio-temporal changes of urban and non-urban land uses, which differ across regions and across different hierarchical levels of urban areas. Our findings have shown that peri-urban areas are growing more than rural areas, and even growing more than urban areas in some regions. A deeper look at regions located in different geographical zones pointed to substantial development disparities across western and eastern regions of Turkey. We also employed multiple regression models to explain any possible drivers of land-use change, regarding both urban and non-urban land uses. The results reveal that the three influencing factors-socio-economic characteristics, regional characteristics and location, and development constraints, facilitate land-use change. However, their impacts differ in different geographical locations, as well as with different hierarchical levels.

Abstract:

The utilization of urban land use maps can reveal the patterns of human behavior through the extraction of the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of urban land use. Remote sensing that holds detailed and abundant information on spectral, textual, contextual, and spatial configurations is crucial to obtaining land use maps that reveal changes in the urban environment. However, social sensing is essential to revealing the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of urban land use. This data mining approach is related to data cleaning/outlier removal and machine learning, and is used to achieve land use classification from remote and social sensing data. In bicycle and taxi density maps, the daytime destination and nighttime origin density reflects work-related land uses, including commercial and industrial areas. By contrast, the nighttime destination and daytime origin density pattern captures the pattern of residential areas. The accuracy assessment of land use classified maps shows that the integration of remote and social sensing, using the decision tree and random forest methods, yields accuracies of 83% and 86%, respectively. Thus, this approach facilitates an accurate urban land use classification. Urban land use identification can aid policy makers in linking human activities to the socioeconomic consequences of different urban land uses.

Abstract:

Urban land leasing is a land monetization strategy that was introduced in 1991 by the contemporary regime. Since then, urban center slum demolitions and their replacement by high-end commercial buildings and urban peripheral low-cost residential condominium expansions have been common occurrences in Addis Ababa. Land rentiers quote extreme land prices at the city center and relatively low prices towards the periphery. Therefore, it has been hypothesized that urban land supply and land prices are determinant factors for urban land use orientations, which have pushed low-end groups towards the periphery. Therefore, based on a lens of land rent theory, 1524 land lease prices and 1038 randomly selected land parcels using Google Earth were used to evaluate locational trends in land prices and land use orientations, respectively. This study revealed that there are significant variabilities between government benchmark land prices and actual quoted land prices. Because of the high rent gaps at the city center, significant land price quotations were recorded, and this overlaps with the urban center slum demolitions and slum resident resettlements at low-cost residential condominiums in the urban periphery. In the first 5 km from the urban economic center, land prices show a declining trend towards the periphery. The central business district is dominated by slums partially under demolition and high-end commercial buildings, while the periphery is dominated by high-rise low-cost residential condominiums. Therefore, the distance from the city center was found to be an explanatory factor of urban land prices. The contributions of other urban utilities to land prices, such as access to transportation routes, could be a future research area.

Abstract:

This article aims to relate intrinsic aspects of urban planning that are becoming increasingly important both within the international scientific debate and within urban planning tools. These aspects are land consumption and land value capture. Their centrality is given by the growing importance that in recent years have assumed the aspects related to the sustainable development of settlements. This article aims to summarize the main theories regarding the relationship between the efficiency of land use and the policies of capturing public value. The reference scenario is dictated by sustainable development policies that, if contextualized in the sphere of urban development, imply a rational use of resources to ensure the formation of resilient, safe, and inclusive settlements. This aspect introduces the existing link between urban form and sustainability. It is therefore understood how the achievement of the targets set at the international level are implemented in local urban policies. For this reason, many scholars have argued that the challenge of adapting to new pressures, such as climate change, necessarily means creating efficient urban settlements. The question becomes: which land use can be considered more efficient than the others? This article intends to answer this question by investigating the main theories that have tried to define the mechanisms and methods of comparison of different urban development scenarios. The article goes on to reconstruct the steps that have helped to evaluate urban development according to purely fiscal aspects up to the introduction of qualitative aspects related to public value. To do so, it analyzes the terms and tools related to the concepts of public value and the capture of public value and attempts to synthesize the main theories and research in the sector.

Abstract:

Agricultural and forest lands near settlements are main reserve for expansion of urban areas. Thus, among 148.5 thousand hectares of lands added to Moscow city territory in 2012, 72.2 thousand hectares or 48% were occupied by agricultural and forest lands. Urban areas are characterized by excessively high intensity of land use, land depletion, deterioration in environmental quality and decline in sustainability of urban development. The paper presents the results of analysis of urban land use planning system in the interests of sustainable development of urban territories. The object of the study is the land that is part of Moscow, which is planned to be developed in the coming decades. The authors propose an algorithm for urban development of such areas, which takes into account the quality of land. Design calculations for areas under development were carried out for Shchapovskoye settlement in New Moscow as an example. In addition, the paper covers aspects of land management when developing agricultural land within cities. The authors developed a classification of agricultural land according to a criterion of “suitability for urban development”. The suggested classification has been applied to achieve the objectives of planning urban land use development, determining the order of construction on agricultural lands within the system of sustainable urban development management.

Abstract:

The population growth and/or its use and development of the land is a continuous preoccupation of the decision factors regarding the water supply system in general and the development of the potable water distribution networks in particular. This issue is even more critical especially in the areas of big cities and important urban growing. As the urbanization of land outgrows the existing water supply systems, one of the possible solutions is to expand the water distribution network in order to cover this urban growth. The present paper analyses further the possibilities to define and use certain indices of urban development together with water loss indices in order to determine trends or issues related with the provision of water supply services and connectivity.

Abstract:

Planners have often looked on transportation policies as a means of controlling broad patterns of land use. It has been argued that past transportation policies have contributed to decentralization of urban activities resulting in congestion, traffic hazards, and environmental pollution. Others contend that urban land uses reflect location decisions by individual households and employers and that transportation is just one of the many factors that affect such decisions. Thus, public policies in transportation have very little opportunity to alter future land use. The exact effect of transit on the distribution of urban activities, the resulting urban structure, the level of congestion, and air quality is not fully understood. An attempt is made in this paper to document successful cases of transit and land use integration as well as the techniques used by different agencies to bring about such integration. Various studies under the Transit Cooperative Research Program on different aspects of transit and land use policies serve as the basic sources of information for this paper. Eight case studies are examined that encompass a variety of transit modes in urban North America. It is concluded that the accessibility advantages provided by transit may play a crucial role in the concentration of development and in creating economic opportunities. However, transit by itself is not sufficient to guarantee successful transit-focused development. Other major factors are supportive regional and local policies and private investment in concert with the transit program. Further, successful transit and land use integration does not necessarily imply the presence of a high-speed rail system. In a strong market, when support policies are in place, light rail and busways can also be used to channel urban growth.

Abstract:

Abstract. Urban Heat Island (UHI) refers to the development of higher urban temperatures of an urban area compared to the temperatures of surrounding suburban and rural areas. Highly reflective urban materials to solar radiation present a significantly lower surface temperature and contribute to reducing the sensible heat released in the atmosphere and mitigating the urban heat island. Many studies of the UHI effect have been based on Land Surface Temperature (LST) measurements from remote sensors. The remotely sensed UHI has been termed the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect. This study examines Tabriz city land use/land cover (LULC) and LST changes using Landsat satellite images between 2000 and 2017. Maximum likelihood classification and single channel methods were used for LULC classification and LST retrieval respectively. Results show that impervious surface has increased 13.79% and bare soil area has decreased 16.2%. The results also revealed bare soil class LST after a constant trend become increasing. It also revealed the impervious surface LST has a decreasing trend between 2000 and 2011 and has a little change. Using materials that have low absorption and high reflectance decrease the effect of heat island considerably.

Abstract:

The paper aims to explore the possibilities to enhance the efficiency of land use, considering the evolution of land take (LT), and proposes the use of public value capture (PVC) instruments in selected differently experienced countries. This answers two fundamental questions. How is the concept of LT positioned in relation to the environmental policy of Europe? Which PVC instruments could stimulate more efficient land use? The aim of this article is to identify which tools can guide the transformations of the urban environment by promoting more efficient land use. These tools have been identified in the mechanisms for capturing value as they can pursue the goal of a more attractive net LT. For these reasons, the article initially analyzes the spread of the problem of land consumption, at a European level, showing how this phenomenon is very diversified not only between individual states, but also within each nation. In addition, the knowledge system to define the main initiatives and actions aimed at orienting urban development in the direction of reducing land consumption is highlighted. Subsequently, the theoretical framework concerning the issues relating to the capture of public value in urban planning operations is illustrated. The case studies representing the various European contexts are then introduced, and for each case the dynamics of urban development were analyzed. It has been done in relation to the evolution of the regulatory apparatus of territorial governance and its transformations. On the basis of this analysis, indicators have been defined. Their goal is to allow comparing the results that emerged from the case study analysis, which would otherwise have been inconsistent. In this way, it is possible to demonstrate how land use is more efficient in countries where PVC tools are used systemically and how these tools make it easier to guide urban transformations in line with the principles of sustainable development.

Abstract:

AbstractThe amount of land in urban and other special uses increased more than 50 percent since the 1960s in the South. Rural land converted to urban uses is directly related to increases in population in the South. Urban land-use coefficients were estimated to provide a measure of the amount of land converted to urban uses per person added to the population base. These coefficients indicate that from 1974 to 1987 two-thirds to three fourths of an acre of land was converted to urban uses for each person added to the population base. At this rate, about 12.6 million acres are expected to be converted to urban use in the South during the next two decades.

Abstract:

Current information on urban land use and surface cover is derived from the land classification of cities, facilitating accurate future urban planning. Key insights are driven by multi-year remote sensing data. These data, when analyzed, produce high-resolution changes on the Earth’s surface. In this context, publicly accessible Urban Atlas data are employed for the high-precision and high-resolution classification and monitoring of terrestrial surfaces. These datasets, which are useful for preserving natural resources, guiding spatial developments, and mitigating pollution, are crucial for monitoring changes and managing cities. This research aims to analyze and contrast land use and land cover (LULC) changes in Gaziantep (Turkey) between 2010 and 2018 using Urban Atlas data, and to investigate correlations between the city’s statistical data and LULC changes. Gaziantep’s urban dynamics were analyzed using Urban Atlas datasets from 2010 to 2015 and 2012 to 2018, the latter part of Copernicus, the European Earth Observation Programme. To understand the impact of LULC changes on urban landscapes, people, and the environment, official environmental and demographic statistics spanning four years were sourced and studied. The findings reveal a trend of agricultural and vacant lands evolving into residential and industrial zones, with such changes likely to increase in the near future, given the growth of building zones. While some land classes have shown consistent area values annually, residential and industrial zones have expanded in response to housing and employment demands. The most significant alterations have occurred in the last three years. Shifts in urban configurations align closely with migratory patterns, reflecting notable variations in factors like population, consumption, and pollution.

Abstract:

Human use of land has altered the structure and functioning of ecosystem. The most spatially and economically important human uses of land globally include cultivation in various forms; livestock grazing, settlement and construction, reserves and protected lands and timber extraction. The patterns of land use give us insight into the factors that have caused the land cover to change. A better understanding of the determining factors of land use changes is of crucial importance to the study of global environmental change. This paper theoretically strive to evaluate the contributions of government policies and programmes in transforming the various land uses in the urban centers of Ogun state with a view to provide better understanding among the stakeholders in real estate investment. The paper recommended that although landuse changes is an inevitable consequences in the developing nations, there is the need to consider the positive and negative aspect of the policies in order not to jeopardize the available environmental resources for sustainable development. The paper concluded by emphasized the need for government to carry the citizen along in the various policies and programs for even development.

Abstract:

The effect of urban heat island (UHI), characterized by higher temperatures in urban areas compared to surrounding rural areas, is a significant consequence of rapid urbanization. As cities continue to grow and attract more people, the UHI effect intensifies due to increased heat-absorbing surfaces and reduced green spaces. This can lead to various environmental and health issues, specifically affecting vulnerable populations. This study investigates the phenomenon of UHIs in the Kalutara district of Sri Lanka and examines the relationship between Land Use Land Cover (LULC) changes, urbanization, and the intensity of UHIs. Landsat satellite images from 1991, 2001, 2011, and 2021 were analyzed using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques to create land Surface Temperature (LST) maps and LULC maps. The results show a significant expansion of urban areas and a reduction in green areas within the Kalutara district over the study period, accompanied by an increase in the intensity of UHIs. Regression analysis indicates a negative correlation between the percentage of green areas and LST, highlighting the cooling effect of vegetation. Conversely, a positive correlation is found between LST and the percentage of urban areas. The research demonstrates the spread of UHIs from limited urban centers in 1991 to larger urban areas and adjacent regions in 2021. The findings emphasize the need for sustainable land management practices, preservation of green areas, and effective urban planning strategies to mitigate the adverse effects of UHIs.

Abstract:

Urban sprawl is a phenomenon of the unplanned physical appearance spread in the city due to the rapid development of the city. The limited availability of land triggers its development to extend to the suburbs which causes land conversion. This phenomenon occurs due to the development of the city which continues to grow but has limited space. This study aimed to spatially examine land-use conversion and urban sprawl patterns in Sokaraja as a WPU (peri-urban area) from Purwokerto and its close distance to Purbalingga City. This study used a qualitative descriptive method to analyze land-use conversion and urban sprawl patterns using built-up area indicators including settlements and places of activity, agricultural land, and road network. The study was conducted on land use spread over 18 urban villages. Remote sensing analysis with image interpretation of the ArcGIS 10.6 software application was used to review four-time series, namely 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2019. The results of the study found that in a span of 14 years there had been a land conversion in Sokaraja subdistrict. This is evidenced by the increase of the building area which includes settlements and places of activity by 261,991 Ha (8,901%) and followed by a decrease in the area of agricultural land by 261,991 Ha (8,901%). The urban sprawl pattern found is a combination of leapfrog development and ribbon development.

Abstract:

The rapid development of technology, industry, and civilization and the improper land production in the urban artificial ecosphere have led to severe environmental pollution and resource exhaustion. Reviewing the highly ordered and highly dynamic urban use operation mechanism is necessary for improving urban sustainable development. We used several methods based on urban ecology and sustainability of urban development theory, considered urban use as a system, and analyzed the urban land use system in terms of operation principle and the mechanism of society, economy, and environmental systems through system thinking. We also studied the causal feedback relationships of the urban land use system with system variables and divided it into five subsystems, namely, urban population, land use, industry economy, transportation, environmental ecology. We then constructed a feedback flow graph of the index and the circular operation of the common drive system to characterize effectively the state of urban land.

Abstract:

Land is not only a major space for human production and living, but also one of the most precious resources to humans. As a space carrier of urban construction, urban land resources constitute the part with the highest asset benefit among land resources, offering an essential space for economic reproduction, population reproduction and environment reproduction in urban areas. To sum up, urban land resources are the material basis, guaranteeing sustainability of urban development.In this paper, changes of sustainability of land use in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province from 2011 to 2015 were analyzed so as to evaluate sustainability level of land use in Zhengzhou. Based on correlation analysis, resource, environment, economy and society were selected as four evaluation indexes, and their weights were determined. Then, the method of maximum was used to realize data normalization, and the comprehensive index value was computed. Finally, sustainability of Zhengzhou’s land use was comprehensively evaluated. Taken as a whole, sustainability of Zhengzhou’s land use was improving from 2011 to 2015, but the comprehensive sustainability level was still low, calling for further strengthening. From 2014 to 2015, the sustainability level of land use was still on the downward.
