Zoning and mode of rural residential land consolidation based on plan orientation degree

Land use zoning not only impacts on the modes of rural residential land consolidation and development, but also guides the development and economic structure of rural residence nearby for their externality. Taking Shunyi district, Beijing as a case, this paper divided rural residential land into four classes of consolidation zones, based on the analysis of urban, industrial, transport and ecological plan orientation degree analyses and gradation, coupled with the rural residential land socioeconomic strength (high, medium and low levels). Furthermore, further consolidation modes were also advanced according to the combination of rural residential land socioeconomic strength and plan orientation degree zones. And four consolidation modes for rural residential land were generated. Finally, detailed designing and planning were discussed to realize diversified consolidation modes. The results indicated that the combination of planning externality and rural residential land consolidation could realize both farmland protection and the living, working and industrial structure improvement under the background of urban-rural integration. This study could provide new perspective and ideologies for rural residential land consolidation.
