Abstract

Urban agglomeration development is an important embodiment in regional competitiveness improvement.To explore the actual urban agglomeration development of Shandong Province, this essay studies the urban agglomeration scope by analyzing urban primacy ratio and scale fractal distribution, analyzes the spatial distribution of urban agglomeration by attraction model and analyzes the spatial economic relation and urban function of the urban agglomeration by further application of urban flow intensity and urban function index.After an overall exploration of the spatial relation, the author has reached the conclusion that urban agglomerations of S handong Province tend to be outwardlooking, the development structure is far from reasonable and urban function division needs further improvement.
