Abstract:This paper developed a new method to research the distribution characteristics of regional soil moisture resources by GIS (Geographic Information System) and RS (Remote Sensing) in accordance with AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and took Shijiazhuang City in 2000 as a case. Firstly, 6 impact factors which can affect soil moisture content were chosen, namely precipitation, evaporation, altitude, slope, soil porosity and land use, and an evaluation model for the distribution characteristics of soil moisture resources was established by using AHP to ascertain the weights of these factors. Secondly, on the spatial analysis of GIS, the soil moisture of Shijiazhuang City was divided into 5 grades. This can to be a quick method to obtain regional soil moisture.
