ABSTRACT

The "13th Five-Year Plan" outline once again proposes to improve the modern integrated transportation system and improve the overall efficiency of transportation and logistics. Promoting the agglomeration of the logistics industry is in line with the current economic development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration and the long-term development of the logistics industry. In this paper, the global spatial autocorrelation analysis method is used to calculate Global Moran’s I of the logistics industry concentration level of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration. In addition, the Moran scatter plot is used to analyze the local spatial correlation of the logistics industry agglomeration level of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration. The results show that the logistics industry agglomeration level of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei cities presents a significant spatial positive correlation, and the areas with similar levels of logistics industry agglomeration are significantly concentrated in geography. From the whole research period (2009-2016), the spatial distribution pattern of regional economic development in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei has undergone major changes. These changes were mainly completed in 2009-2012. Starting from 2012, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration logistics industry began. The spatial distribution pattern has gradually stabilized.
