Discussing the spatial distribution of industrial land intensive use has become a new international researching area now. This work sets the Wuhan metropolitan areas as the researching example, based on widely collecting the industrial land use data of 42 industrial development parks in the researching area. It built an industrial land intensive use appraisal system which includes 16 indexes, such as land development rate and so on. By combining the method of Delphi and AHP, evaluation results can show the industrial land intensive use level. Apparently, the results told us that the spatial distribution of intensity of main area in Wuhan city is extraordinarily high, spreading from express artery to two flanks of it. From local Moran´s I index, most of indexes distributed as spatial positive correlation including comprehensive plot ratio, otherwise some others such as land supply rate are negative low correlation, and so on. The level of Industrial land intensive use in metropolitan area has strong spatial autocorrelation and the Moran´s I index is 0.5656. It supplied reference for the optimization of metropolitan land use and industrial planning.
