Abstract:The relocation of mining villages has become a very important part of the development of coal industry. Therefore, it will provide practical help for the industrial development and ecological construction of the coal mining area to find out a series of problems such as who wants to move, where to move and establish a set of scientific and efficient theoretical system of mining area relocation. In this paper, after a multi-faceted research, Yuncheng, located in Juye mining area base, is selected as the research area. Based on the VSD (Vulnerability Scoping Diagram) model, 12 indicators representing the characteristics of the mining area are selected to construct the ecological vulnerability evaluation system of the mining area and 13 indicators are selected to construct the village development potential evaluation system with the construction level, economic development level and living environment as the criterion layer. Combined with the two Index systems, the identification system of the relocated villages in the mining area is constructed. By analyzing and translating the image satellite data of Landsat TM in 2018, and standardizing the data related to coal, population, infrastructure, etc., importing it into ArcGIS software, the villages in the study area are divided into four levels according to the equal spacing method:priority relocation, suspension relocation, original site reservation, and resettlement area selection. The results show that 290 villages in the mining area can be divided into four levels, with different proportions. The specific situations are as follows:ecological vulnerability of plain mining areas is greatly affected by subsidence and the classification of coal resource reserves, and the overall development potential of villages is greatly affected by traffic and radiation from towns and central urban areas. There are 72, 80, 91 and 47 villages in each level, accounting for 24.82%, 27.59%, 31.38% and 16.21%. The system can identify the differences between villages in more detail, provide a reference for the reasonable relocation and resettlement of villages in the mining area of Yuncheng County, and has good applicability, and provides a scientific and effective reference for the development of the relocation theory of villages in the plain coal area.
