Predication of the post mining land use based on random forest and DBSCAN

Mine reclamation is one of the most important stages of the mining activities in line with the basic principles of sustainable development. In this study, different post-mining land uses are evaluated in the Hongliulin mining area, which is located in Shen mu country of China. 145 soil samples were collected in the May,2021 by using the soil auger, and the sampling depths were 0-20 cm. The sampling points contains 45 to be reclaimed samples and 100 existing classification land use types. 14 environmental factors including soil organic matter (SOM), total nitrogen (TN), available phosphate (AP), available potassium (AK), K, Slope steepness, curvatures, aspect, length, Topographic Wetness Index (TWI), NDVI and elevation were extracted and calculated based on laboratory test and digital elevation map. The random forest classier showed a great prediction capability, with only 1 miss-classified sample in the validation data-set, the accuracy of the classification model was 95%. The content of TN of C1 is 5 times more than C2 and 4 times more than C3. Also, the K value of C1 column is maximum and over 0.4, which means the soil particle is relatively smaller and the soil texture of it is sandy loam. In terms of the 45 to be reclaimed samples, 15 samples were classified into C1, 23 samples were classified into C2, 5 samples were classified into C3, 2 samples were classified into C4. The value of K and content of soil nutrients of the samples classified to be C1 column(C1-C) is maximum. The soybean and murphy were suggested based on the soil nutrients index and with the mining disturbance on cluster 2 of C1, the ground subsidence filling as well as soil nutrients increased strategy should be applied. The result may contribute to the land use planning and idle land utilization strategy.
