“…However, due to the exploitation of coal energy, Ordos City is also facing a series of environmental problems. For example, the combustion of coal releases a large number of pollutants such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter, which have a significant impact on the quality of the atmosphere [27,28]. Solid waste such as coal gangue and coal ash generated during coal mining and utilization may lead to soil pollution and further affect farmland and ecosystems if not handled properly [29][30][31].…”

Exploring the land-cover types and their changes in open-pit mining areas is of great significance to the ecological restoration of Ordos City and its sustainable development. Therefore, in this study, the temporal features, spectral features, and the derived features from intra-annual images combined with the random forest method were used to determine the land-cover types and their changes in the open-pit mining area of Ordos City in 2019 and 2022. The results show that the land-cover types in the open-pit mining area of Ordos City are construction land, bare land, water, vegetation, and coal. The main land-cover types in the western open-pit mining area of Ordos City are different from those in the eastern open-pit mining area. The main land-cover type changes in the open-pit mining area from 2019 to 2022 are the conversion of bare land to vegetation and the conversion of coal to bare land, as well as the conversion of vegetation to bare land. This study provides the possibility of dynamic monitoring for the realization of green mine planning in Ordos City.
