We selected the Gucheng small watershed of Keshan County as the research region. Based on the data of precipitation, the soil, DEM, the remote sensing data, the geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing (RS) technology, the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model was used to calculate the soil erosion and classify the calculation, then the soil erosion rate was analyzed, spatial distribution was evaluated, and with the impact of the land use on soil erosion was examined. Results showed that low-level was the main soil erosion rate, medium-level was just less than the low-level, high-level, very high-level and acute level also happened, but their percentages were relative low. Low-level soil erosion rate mostly distributed on the central region and the northwestern region, the medium-level distributed in the central region and the northeastern region, the other levels both scattered. The soil erosion most happened on the farmland or the unused-land, the residential area also existed soil erosion. The soil erosion did not readily occurred in the other kinds of land uses. Therefore, it could be seen that increasing the vegetation coverage of the forest or decreasing the area of farmland could control soil erosion.
