Abstract:Mountain protection is of great significance to Jinan city, which integrates "mountain—spring—lake—river—city" in the protection of spring water, water conservation, air purification, and improvement of the ecological environment. Based on the literature review and research, especially the "Jinan City Mountain Protection Regulations ", the principles of mountain integrity, ecological landscape protection, geological hazard prevention, and building concession delineated by the mountain protection line have been proposed. The combination of field survey and remote sensing image interpretation technology is used to preliminarily delimit the range of mountain protected areas. Planning and management information is linked to verify and adjust the final red line of mountain protection. Taking the mountains outside the Jinan Central Urban Construction Area as the research object, the proposed protection method for mountain protection lines is used to delineate the protection control lines of 260 mountains in Jinan. It will provide some references for the "Mountain Protection Planning (2018—2025)", and laid the foundation for the mountain protection in Jinan city.
