Abstract: Because of the contents of spatial analysis were a wide range and are very complicated, there hasn't been any unified theory system about it. In this paper, authors studied thedefinition and contents of spatial analysis. From the view point of the simulation of the geographical space, the authors defines spatial analysis as a system that describes the special relationship and spatial action of the objects in the geographical space. Furthermore, the contentsof spatial analysis to spatial query, spatial interaction analysis and spatial decision support were extended.
