Engineering environment is a research field with broad scope in which air remote sensing can play an important role. Longtan Reservoir is located in a mountainous region with high ridges and deep canyons. Air remote sensing technique was used to evaluate engineering environment of the reservoir area. Various types of land use were interpreted and mapped on a scale of 1:10000 by using infrared color orthophoto, and selecting training samples, meanwhile types and dimensions of slumps and landslides were recognized and measured within the reservoir area. Furthermore an evaluation and regionalization of slope stability of reservoir bank were carried out. Finally a precision over 90% was given for the results of this investigation by field sampling checking. 3 refs., 1 fig., 2 tabs.
