Mapping generalization based on 1∶10 000 land use map

Cartographic generalization method of land use based on traditional way is slow and low precision,with visualization and spatial analysis tools of ArcGIS software and Guo Yuan software,the paper brought forward a technical method of land use map generalization by cooperation between people and computer,decomposing map generalization processes into several modules.This method could complete cartographic generalization more quickly and efficiently in underlying data generalization,meeting the needs of different scales land use maps for the land management departments.
