Abstract The main erosion patterns in the north of Hebei Province are water erosion and wind erosion.In this paper,the soil erosion Classification system was constructed on the base of the Classification Standards of Soil Erosion Intensity issued by the Ministry of Water Resources of China(1997) and the Hierarchical Index System(Li Yubao,2000).By using geographic information system(GIS) and remote sensing(RS),the(information) such as land use,slope,coverage of plant,soil texture was collected and further overlaid to obtain the erosion intensity classification map in the north of Hebei Province in accordance with the established index system.Furthermore,the map was overlaid with the soil erosion intensity map for detecting the soil erosion status at different land use patterns as well as the land use at different soil erosion status.
