Abstract
Context: The leisure-fishery (LF) industry is an industry that provides fishing activities for recreation and sports. A well-designed layout of LF can reduce resource allocation costs, give play to regional advantages, and maximise utility.
Aims: This paper aims to provide a spatial evolutionary understanding of the development of leisure fishery, and on this basis provide guidance for the future development of leisure-fishery industry, focusing mainly on Zhejiang, an important coastal province of China.
Methods: ArcGIS spatial analysis tool was used to calculate the nearest-neighbour index, outlier analysis, kernel-density analysis, clustering, and coefficient of variation, to analyse the spatial-distribution characteristics of LF units and influencing factors of the spatial distribution in Zhejiang Province.
Key results: The results showed significant differences in the distribution density of LF units among cities in Zhejiang. Traffic, market, and scenic-spot location significantly affected the distribution of LF units in Zhejiang Province. Furthermore, population and economics also affected the spatial distribution of LF units.
Conclusions: The main influencing factors of LF were closely related to traffic, market, and scenic spots.
Implications: Future policy making should focus on the siphoning effects of infrastructure by achieving more rational transport planning and market incentives.
Keywords: ArcGIS, China, influencing factors, leisure fishery, location selection, market, POI, spatial analysis, traffic.
