摘要

This study uses methods,such as a nearest proximity index,nuclear density,spatial interpolation,buffering zone,and overlay analysis,based on an exploratory spatial data anal-ysis tool.It focuses on a large commercial facility in which a mathematical analysis is conduct-ed on its spatial patterns.In the study,45 large-scale retail commercial facilities(LSRCFs)in the Gulou District,Nanjing,China,were chosen,and the spatial concentration,density,and structure of the LSRCFs in this area were analyzed.Three additional factors,namely,popula-tion,transportation,and consumption,were examined to determine their impact on the spatial patterns of the LSRCFs.Finally,this study recommends a spatial layout for the future of the Gulou District according to the analysis results.
