Abstract: Reclamation of industrial and mining wasteland can help to address the current urgent challenge of land resource needs in China. In order to ensure well-developed reclamation planning, a large number of field surveys of industrial and mining wasteland were undertaken in Daye County, which is located in the south-east of Hubei province. Through a series of indexes, the reclamation potential of the industrial and mining wasteland was determined. Based on the surveys and evaluation, a specific reclamation plan was then produced, and it is shown on four major maps, which are the industrial and mining wasteland status map, the reclamation planning map, the reclamation potential distribution map, and the major reclamation project distribution map. The scale of the first two maps is 1:250,000, and the scale of the latter two maps is 1:300,000. The main purpose of this project is to provide a detailed planning scheme for local government, which will assist with important decision making in land-use policy, and to provide a unique perspective and experience for scholars all over the world.
