Abstract

This research explores the integration needs and challenges for achieving green and smart transformation in the port industry, leveraging multi-source data and geographic information technology. The study utilizes comprehensive data, including information from the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System, the National Catalogue Service for Geographic Information, and road network maps of Jiangsu Province in China. Geographical analysis methods, such as weighted kernel density estimation and standard deviation ellipse analysis, are employed to identify spatial distribution patterns and changes in the port and shipping service industry. The results indicate a spatial distribution pattern with weak expansion from the center, along the "northwest-southeast" direction. Challenges such as decentralized management and competition for interests hinder port integration for sustainable development. By understanding the spatial dynamics, policymakers can make informed decisions for a greener, smarter, and more efficient port sector.
