The primary input data of the 2007 land use/cover (LULC) and topographic map are
generated from the Department of Land Development, Thailand at the scale of 1:50,000.
There are 5 main classified land use/cover types in Surat Thani province. These are urban
and built-up land (U), agricultural land (A), forest (F), water body (W) and miscellaneous
land (M). This study considered some important issues related to ecotourism potential
resources. Therefore, the output maps were organized to have 10 land use/cover
categories according to bio-physical vegetation characteristics for ecotourism potential
resources and the background knowledge of the study area. Finally, the area in hectares
was calculated for each land use/cover category as seen in Table 5.5. The distribution of
land use/cover classes in 2007 is shown in Figure 5.4. The definition and characteristics
of major land cover categories are described as follows:
