Abstract  Quantitative evaluation of karst caves, as a geological relic resource, is helpful to its protection and utilization. Based on the investigation and research of karst cave resources in Jiande City, the authors in this paper analyzed the geological background of karst cave, and statistically classified the characteristics of karst caves in this area. The value evaluation system was constructed by Analytic Hierarchy Process. A comprehensive evaluation of karst caves in Jiande City was conducted through quantitative analysis of the actual situation of karst tourism, and each karst cave was quantified based on the evaluation index elements. The development value of karst caves was briefly analyzed based on developed karst caves in Zhejiang Province. Hei Cave was recommended as a priority development alternative, and Shenxian Cave, Jinzhou Xiangu Cave, Jiuxian Cave, Matou Mountain Cave, Qianshan Cave, Daijia Xiangu Cave and so on, were selected as the secondary development alternatives. Besides, Hei Cave was selected as the typical karst cave for in-depth introduction from the aspects of morphology, karst landscape, and others. The evaluation and analysis results could provide some basic data for the planning, development and utilization of karst caves, and provide some new alternative sites for the economic development of the tourism industry in Jiande City. Different protection levels of karst caves were divided based on the characteristics and evaluation results of karst cave resources, which could provide some support for local classification and protection of karst caves.
