Abstract

This paper selected Changping District located in suburban area of Beijing as a case study, based on Land sat TM image data in 1998 and 2009 for extracting the information about vegetation index and land use. It analyzed the relationship between land use change and vegetation indexes for providing the basis and reference value to protect the future sustainable development of eco-environment. The results showed that it had developed a higher degree of land utilization in Changping district, regional land extension strength was significantly enhanced, the average of vegetation index had a strong decreased trend in the periods of 1998-2009: from 0.3918 to 0.1825 for the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), from 0.6779 to 0.5687 for the vegetation coverage (f), from 2.2819 to 1.3124 for the ratio vegetation index (RVI). Land use change in some degree was one of the main factors affecting the changes of different vegetation indexes. For example, the difference of decreased change rate for three vegetation index (NDVI, f and RVI) caused by arable land was particularly significant, respectively, 76.9%, 30.0%, 45.8%.
