Through several field surveys about Wenchuan earthquake stricken area, according to land damaged characteristics and the local basic conditions, it is concluded that the reclamation of damaged land in Wenchuan earthquake is restricted by natural conditions,basic conditions and social-economic conditions which are related with various factors or targets. In light of analytic hierarchy process, assessment system of land reclamation potential in Sichuan earthquake stricken area is established to obtain the critical value of reclamation potential.
