ANALYSIS ON THE SPATIAL STRUCTURE OF URBAN LAND USE IN JINAN CITY

Based on the data of urban land use obtained by remote sensing interpretation, the ring structure and wedged structure of Jinan city are studied with the aid of MapInfo and ArcView. It is indicated that the urban district can be distinguished into 3 rings. Compared with the traditional theory of Ring Structure, they have many distinctive characteristics. The main functions of the Inner Ring are residence, business and banking. And its proportion of residential land is considerable high. In the Intermediate Ring, the spatial structure of land use is relatively equal and its variation by time is relatively stable. But the structure in the External Ring varies acutely and its main land use type is industrial land. Each ring area of Jinan city can be divided into some wedge-like urban areas.
