ABSTRACT

Land subsidence is a common urban geological disaster. With the acceleration of urbanization, land subsidence is increasingly affected by urban expansion. It is of great significance to study the influence of urban expansion on land subsidence for urbanization construction and policy guidance. Under the strategic background of building Beijing into a sub-center of the city, the rapid expansion of Tongzhou city, the accelerated construction of infrastructure and the sharp increase of population will all put new pressure on the evolution of land subsidence in Tongzhou. This paper takes Tongzhou District of Beijing as an example, and takes 2015-2021 as the research period. In order to reflect the increment of urban expansion process, the improved multilinear model and land use monitoring based on RS and GIS are used to study the urban expansion process, and the relationship between urban expansion and land subsidence in Tongzhou District is analyzed by using Sentinel-2 satellite remote sensing image data and GIS spatial analysis method. The results show that: 1) With the increase of years, the annual settlement in Tongzhou District of Beijing shows a slowing trend. 2) The process of urban expansion is accelerating, and the urban expansion shows a trend of first accelerating and then slowing down, which leads to the evolution of land subsidence in Tongzhou city. 3) There is a high correlation between the process of urban expansion and the trend of settlement.
