This article describes a decision support system for land-use structure optimization and land-use allocation. This system was established for the rural land managers to explore their land use options. It integrated database technology, expert system technology and spatial decision support system technology. The DSS consist of four components: a geographic information system (GIS), land use modules, a graphical user interface and land use planning tools. The linear programming, multi-objective planning, fuzzy clustering, and other land-use structure optimization algorithms are implemented on the ArcEngine software platform. The system has been applied in Beijing Pinggu area. The results suggest that this system can be a useful tool to support management decisions.
