Study on spatial-temporal distribution characteristics and influencing factors of cultural heritage in Shanxi Province——Taking cultural relics protection units as an example
As the material carrier of cultural heritage,it was of great significance for the protection and inheritance of cultural herit-age to study the characteristics of the spatial-temporal distribution of heritage conservation units and their influencing factors.Taking 1518 cultural relic protection units in Shanxi Province as the research objects,this paper discussed their patterns of spatial-temporal distribution by ArcGIS geospatial analysis method.The results showed that:①The number of cultural relics protection units in each his-torical period showed a trend of a small number in the first and middle periods and a surge in the middle and late periods,with the lar-gest number in the Song,Yuan,Ming and Qing periods,and the distribution of the types of cultural relics protection units in each period had a strong epochal character.②The spatial movement of the center of gravity of the distribution of heritage conservation units in the various historical periods has gradually decreased,and the direction of movement of the center of gravity has shown a tendency to move northwards,then southwards,and then northwards.③The overall view of heritage conservation units presented in the distribution pattern of intensive,more intensive,and sparse areas,each historical period presented in the state of cluster distribution,and the distribution of different historical periods were different.④ Using the analyses of geo-detector,it was found that four factors,namely,history,culture and politics,river and water systems,transport routes,and gradient,profoundly affected the emergence,type,number,and spatial and temporal distribution patterns of heritage conservation units.Finally,this paper proposed countermeasures for the conservation and utili-zation of heritage conservation units in terms of conservation strategies,cross-discipline,buffer zone and database construction,and re-source linkage.
