Abstract :
The research of soil erosion is a core and focus point for study of the protection of the environment. In order to study the soil erosion, the technologies of remote sensing and geographical information systems were used to analyze the spatial distribution of soil erosion. Take soil erosion in Hubei province for example, the mathematical methodology for the study of soil erosion is explored and developed. The quantitative approach and track of the study of soil erosion are given in this paper
