Spatial Differentiation of Jinshang Settlements based on GIS Technology
Taking 81 traditional villages in Jinzhong area as the research object,based on their formation and prosperity years,spatial distribution in different periods and village characteristics,Arc GIS software was used to build GIS database,and the nearest neighbor index method and nuclear density analysis method were used to conduct quantitative research on traditional villages in Jinzhong area.In order to analyze the relationship between their distribution and characteristics and the culture of Shanxi merchants,the paper compares the development of Shanxi merchants in different periods.The findings are as follows:(1)Traditional villages in Jinzhong area form a high-density cluster and two sub-density clusters,which are closely related and mainly affected by terrain;(2)Most traditional villages were formed in the Yuan Dynasty and before,but most of them flourished in the Qing Dynasty,which was closely related to policy changes and the development of Shanxi merchants;(3)The type of villages was determined by the existing remains,and the centralized contiguous protection planning strategy of the establishment of four clusters was proposed.
