Abstract

Regional coordinated development is the second major opportunity for the development of the cities in western China since the implementation of the China Western Development Program. In recent years, under the influence of regional coordinated development, the rapid development of urban areas in western China and the level of urbanization have been improved rapidly, but the contradiction between people and land, the contradiction between urban land resources and urban expansion and economic development has gradually intensified. Therefore, scientifically grasping and analyzing the utility information of urban land use is of great significance for promoting the efficient use of land and sustainable development of the city’s society and economics. We selected Hechi City, which was seen as the important portal of Southwest China to the ASEAN International Passage, as the study area. The study constructed an evaluation index system which was based on land use input level, utilization structure and degree, utilization benefit and ecological sustainability and used the comprehensive index method to assess urban land use performance of Hechi City. The results showed that the comprehensive performance index kept an upward developing trend in fluctuations during 2010 to 2015. The performance index of utilization benefit and ecological sustainability had been increasing continuously, while that of land use input level increased insignificantly. Besides, the performance index of utilization structure and degree fluctuated and its effect to the comprehensive performance index is remarkable, so that it is important for the city to optimize land structure and improving land use efficiency. Based on the research results, four countermeasures were put forward to address the problem in optimizing land structure and sustainable utilization of land resources for Hechi City.

Keywords: Urban land use, Performance evaluation, Target index system, Hechi City
