User Friendly

Agricultural land use planning should always be guided by a reliable tool to ensure effective decision making in the allocation of land use and activities. The primary aim of this study is to develop a user friendly system on a spatial basis for agricultural land suitability evaluation of four groups of agriculture commodities, including food crops, horticultural crops, perennial (plantation) crops, grazing, and tambak (fish ponds) to guide land use planning. The procedure used is as follows: (i) conducting soil survey based on generated land mapping units; (ii) developing soil database in GIS; and (iii) designing a user friendly system. The data bases of the study were derived from satellite imagery, digital topographic map, soil characteristics at reconnaissance scale, as well as climate data. Land suitability evaluation in this study uses the FAO method. The study produces a spatial based decision support tool called SUFIG-Wilkom that can give decision makers sets of information interactively for land use allocation purposes.This user friendly system is also amenable to various operations in a vector GIS, so that the system may accommodate possible additional assessment of other land use types.

Land Suitability Evaluation

Constructive land suitability evaluation is the premise of effectively disposing land resource. China is in the historical period that urbanization develops fleetly; the demand of construction land grows rapidly; carrying on the research about method of constructive land suitability evaluation presents strong practical significance and broad application prospect. The paper summarizes basic analysis method of constructive land suitability evaluation based on GIS from five basic links which cohere each other, and then introduces the research development of constructive land suitability evaluation from angles of ensuring evaluation factor and factor weight, evaluation factor classification, land classification. Finally, the paper analyses research direction of this work from angles of consummating the evaluation method and using new mathematical method, releasing the related criteria by government department, and the combination between urban extended model, area development strategy, and GIS.
