Spatial and temporal changes of landscape pattern in Li River basin was analyzed based on Landsat TM and OLI data in 1991 and 2013. Maximum likelihood classification method was used to extract land use information in two periods. In FRAGSTATS platform, the characteristics of landscape types were quantitatively analyzed by selecting landscape index at class level and landscape level.
