A Study on the Measurement of the Geo-Economic Relationship Between Luoyang and Other Cities in the Central Plains Economic Zone

Abstract

In 2018, the development plan of the Central Plains Economic Zone was upgraded to a national regional development strategy, providing strategic opportunities and broad prospects for the economic development of the region. Luoyang, as one of the core cities of the Central Plains Economic Zone, how to integrate into the Central Plains Economic Zone with high quality has an important impact on the city's economic and social development. By measuring the geo-economic relationship, this paper makes a quantitative analysis of the geo-economic relationship between Luoyang and 17other prefecture level cities in the Central Plains Economic Zone by using the Euclidean distance method. The results show that the geo-economic relationship between Luoyang and other prefecture level cities in the Central Plains Economic Zone is relatively normal, and the complementary geo-economic relationship is slightly greater than the competitive geo-economic relationship. Therefore, in the future development cooperation, we should strengthen the complementary geo-economic relationship, handle the competitive geo-economic relationship, and strengthen the geo-economic cooperation.
