Abstract :
The hinterland is very impartment to a port, so we must improve the scientific and rationality of the present port hinterland segmentation. This thesis chooses Newton Model as Empirical Methods, establishment of evaluation index system of the port gravitation. Then chooses Guangzhou port and Shenzhen port as the example the finally result is obtained with Multi-level fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. It´s easy to found that the hinterland distinction circle closer to the vertical bisector and hinterland division have to do with the distance between two ports in a more recent area. But the advantage of Shenzhen Port hinterland gradually emerges in the remote region.
