Evaluation of Urbanization Coordination Degrees in Gansu Province

Abstract:

This paper divides urbanization into four parts, population urbanization、economic urbanization、land urbanization and social urbanization, and then calculates the coordination degree of urbanization by using TOPSIS and coordination degree function method. The results show that,(1)Urbanization in Gansu Province has experienced two courses.(2) In 2010, the urbanization within Gansu Province could be divided into four types, population-oriented、land-oriented、economic-oriented and population - economic-oriented.(3) Only 4 cities’ urbanization tended to coordinated development from 2001 to 2010 , it is declined for others.(4)The urbanization coordination difference is significant, and coordination shows different characteristics.
