Abstract

With the support of Geoda software, the paper visualized the regional distribution of logistics industry in the East Coast Area (ECA) in China by box map, and analyzed the statistical data of China Logistic Industry by Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA) map. Then we discussed E-commerce development in relation to the spatial distribution of logistics industry. In ECA 23 cities that ranked within top 25 on logistics industry scale are ranked within the national top 50 on E-commerce maturity. We identified 4 regions where both logistics and E-commerce are highly developed.
