ABSTRACT: The study monitored land use change in Nansha during 2000-2018, evaluate Nansha’s urban planning by the overlay analysis of land use general planning, land use distribution, and economic data, and predicted the urban expansion in 2025 and 2035 to provide scientific information for urban planning in the future. The results showed that the built-up area rapidly expanded (78.32 km2 to 153.75 km2 in 2000-2018), and the GDP and the newly-added enterprises remarkably increased as well. Most of built-up area matched the land use planning. The urban expansion was simulated to 168.27 km2 in 2025 and to 207.04 km2 in 2035 for future land use planning.
