Based on the comparison between conventional zoning and overlay zoning, it pointed out that the latter one has more applicability and advantages in improving the environmental protection in the RDP-regulatory detailed planning. Some technical characteristics and implemental essentials of environmental overlay zoning were then analyzed in detailed.
