description | Amenity resources are relevant to rural economic development, population
migration, income distribution, and tourism development. For this reason,
many government officials have adopted these amenities as regional
planning and development strategies. Because government officials use
spatial characteristics when they establish rural policies, this study analyzes
the spatial distribution of amenity resources using GIS (geographic
information systems) and analyzes their spatial autocorrelation using related
tools. The study chooses seventeen amenities based on the official amenity
database and finds that most cultural amenities are not clustered spatially
and that, according to the global spatial autocorrelation index (Moran's I),
they have few positive correlations. Finally, an analysis of LISA (local
indicator of spatial association) shows some “hot spots” in the spatial
distribution of the cultural amenities, but additional research is needed to
determine whether these amenities affect regional economies. |
