Abstract. The new data source of China’s civilian high resolution earth observation system ZY-3, GF-1 were applied in the application of the monitoring and protection of the inland-lakes in Wuhan, Hubei Province. After the pre-process of these high resolution satellite images, the object-oriented classification and object-oriented change detection technology were applied in the inland-lakes protection of Wuhan, China. In this paper, the Xiwanhu Lake and Tangxunhu Lake including their surrounding areas were selected as an example, with the experiments the status of these lakes including the lake boundary, lake area and the change of these lakes including the lake water surface increased area, lake water surface decreased area were be obtained. Compared with the pixel-based method, the object-oriented classification and change detection technology shows its intuitive and higher precision in inland-lake protection. Remote sensing technology should be applied in monitoring and protection the inland-lake and other respects of water resource management more widely and deeply in China.
