Taking Renjiazhuang coal mine as the object of study, this paper carries on evaluation to destruction degree in this area by using extension theory and establishing evaluation extension model of land destruction in mining area. Results show that severe destruction area of collapse land in Renjiazhuang coal mine is 112.86hm, moderate destruction area is 372.27hm, light destruction area is 723.42...

Ecotourism development planning is a multi-criteria process that generally requires spatial analysis. GISimos MCDA model developed by this study, was presented for the first time and applied to Kalecik sub-province of Ankara, Turkey determine suitable areas their suitability levels ecotourism development. The based on evaluation sub-factors representing topography, land cover, climate sociocult...

With current new urban developments, no balance can be found between green spaces and open areas present within urban networks and natural land patterns since urban networks are dominating ecological networks. Accordingly, one of the major tasks of urban and regional planners is the optimal land use allocation to urban green spaces. Therefore, to achieve this goal in this research, locations of...

Recent advances in ecological modeling have focused on novel methods for characterizing the environment that use presence-only data and machine-learning algorithms to predict the likelihood of species occurrence. These novel methods may have great potential for land suitability applications in the developing world where detailed land cover information is often unavailable or incomplete. This pa...
