[Objective] Using remote sensing to evaluate the treatment of sandpits wasteland in Mentougou District of Beijing City

to provide references for typical degraded ecosystem's ecological restoration and landscape reconsreuction for Beijing government.[Methods] Based on remote sensing image and field investigation

the possible utilization ways for all sandpits wastelands were listed. At the same time

we used landscape evaluation methods such as synthetic index method

GIS analytic method and expert scoring method

and selected relevant evaluating factor to establish an evaluation model. Finally we made a comprehensive evaluation system for the ecological management effect of sandpits wasteland in Mentougou District.[Results] The evaluation results showed that types of utilization on sandpits wasteland in Mentougou District can be divided into five ways:public green area or park

natural ecological restoration area

construction land

basic farmland

river comprehensive treatment area. The ecological management effect can be graded as public green area or park > river comprehensive treatment area > basic farmland > construction land > natural ecological restoration area.[Conclusion] In the past ten years

the utilization and ecological restoration of sandpits wasteland had got remarkable achievement

the overall effect of ecological treatment has reached a fine condition

especially

for public green area or park

from the aspects of vegetation coverage and landscape coordination

they got better recovery effects. However

the effect of natural ecological restoration was not good enough

way of natural ecological restoration is not suitable on sandpits wasteland.
