[Intensive utilization of land in Tiexi old industrial district, Shenyang, Northeast China].
Land use types of the Tiexi old industrial district, Shenyang, Northeast China were derived from QUICKBIRD and IKONOS satellite image interpretation to analyze its dynamics and intensive use by geostatistics and convention statistical methods which could reveal regional environment and socio-economic services. The results showed the main land use types were industrial land and residential land in Tiexi old industrial district. Land use changed significantly from 2000-2010, i. e., the industrial land area decreased rapidly and the housing land area, park land, commercial service land, and grassland increased simultaneously. The district environment was improved and the comprehensive livable level was increasing. Also, the regional functional orientation was becoming clear, the living and business function verged to maturity, and the land use efficiency was increasing. From 2002, the intensive land use level in Tiexi old industrial district was evidently improved, however, the potential of intensive land use could still be further exploited.
