通过ArcGIS利用区位商、最近邻距离分析、核密度分析与定向分布分析等多种方法综合分析武汉市创意产业空间集聚的演变特征。结果表明,武汉市创意产业总体呈集聚状态,依据发展水平差异可分为核心区、潜力区与待发展区,并主要集聚在汉口"核心圈"与武昌"潜力轴"上。城市内创意产业功能分布与集聚分布主要呈由内向外扩展的演变特征。但根据产业特征、发展基础与发展阶段的不同,不同创意产业部门在不同区域的集聚形态、集聚强度、空间演化过程及发展趋势存在差异。这些差异与创意人才机构、文化传播设施以及创意交流空间集聚存在密切联系。

With the rising of creative economy, developing creative industry has been generally considered to be an effective measurement for urban regeneration by promoting industrial upgrade and spatial transformation. Creative industry in Wuhan has been classified into five sectors including creative design, information service, advertising, arts and media, creative consumption. Enterprises' locations of each sector on 2000,2005, 2010 and 2013 were collected from official website of Commerce and Industry Bureau and visualized on map by acquiring coordinate data from Google Earth. All spatial data was analyzed in various aspect with Arc GIS software of each study year, including analysis of location quotient, nearest neighbor index, kernel density and directional distribution. According to the study, evolutions characteristics of agglomeration of creative industries in Wuhan shows difference with characteristics of development period and sectors. Specifically, creative industry is clustering in Wuhan while its agglomeration scope is expanding and agglomeration center is outward moving from city center. Three function zones, core zone, developing zone and undeveloped zone, were identified by comparing the degree of development and specialization level of creative industry among districts, which shows the core force of creative industry in the city has centrifugal tendencies as well, meanwhile diversification level is increasing within each zone. Generally, productive sectors of creative industry are in higher development level with the agglomeration scope to expand outside the city as the main characteristics.
