The differences in natural environment and social economic development between regions are distinct, and the main development features and environmental function orientation are all different. From the perspective of environmental function, planning as a whole to consider all environmental elements, building environmental management system based on environmental function division has important theoretical and practical significance. This study presents the connotation of environment function. Environment function is the overall definition of the elements of the environment, and its constructed system for human beings existence, human beings lives and production. The environment function includes two parts: protect natural ecological security and maintain health human living environment. According to the connotation of environment function, this study creates an evaluation index system of environmental function from three categories: protect natural ecological security, maintain health human living environment and supporting capacity of regional environment. This study constructed environmental function division technology system based on environmental function evaluation and leading factor method with RS and GIS technologies. On the basis of scientific assessment of natural environment and social economy development, fully join existing relevant zonings and planning, it established the scheme of environmental function zoning in China. The result showed that: there were 53.2% of the land areas divided into natural reserving zone and ecological functional conservation zone, to provide ecological security of the national economy sustainable development. In addition, there were 46.8% of the land areas divided into food provided environment security zone, living environment maintenance zone and resources development environment constraint zone. These zones are mainly engaged in agricultural production, urbanization and industrialization development and resources development and utilization. Additionally, they are mainly concentrated areas of national economic and social development, and the key of environmental function is to maintain population health. Among environmental management measures for different types of zones, "management according to law, mandatory protection" was insisted on the natural ecological reserved zone, according to various kinds of area protection law, mandatorily protect this zone. Ecological function conservation zone carried on the "conservation priorities, maintain pressure, moderate development". Development should not affect the ecological function of the tourism industry. However, restricting large-scale industrialization and urbanization, and controlling the development intensity are necessary in this zone. The food provided environment security zone implemented "protect base and safety development". Started at ensuring the environmental security of agricultural product, and then carried out appropriate industrial and coastal development and construction, and promoted the orderly urbanization. Settlements environment maintenance zone carried out that "people-oriented, optimizing the development", guided optimization of the layout of the development and construction, promoted coordinated economic and social development and ecological environment. Resources development environment constraint zone implemented that "advance planning, orderly development", it focused on the long-term development of economy and society, regulated various resources development order, and improved resource used efficiency. Environmental function zoning is the basic research of changing of "one size fits all" phenomenon during the environmental protection goal formulation and examination, and it can be used for the controlling the environmental quality and total quantity of pollutant emission, as well as provided the evidence for the policy of industrial environment to implement the access of different functional zones. To implement environmental regionalized management and classified guidance, environmental function zoning is benefit of promoting strategic transformation of environmental protection management.
