  • Abstract
    Due to the development of Internet of Things, which is closely related to a series of geographical questions, this paper explore such new phenomenon of Human Geography, especially the change from Internet era to Internet of Things era, and try to construct the framework of Internet of Things Geography, including: 1. Internet of Things break through time and space isolation between geographical space and virtual space, forming smart geographical space, and building new man-land relationship; 2. Internet of Things profoundly affect Spatial Structure, Product Space, Behavioral Geography, and Urban Geography; 3. Geographical study on derivative phenomenon of Internet of Things such as spatial organization, distribution, and industrial distribution, has guidance value for development strategy of Internet of Thing; 4. Information Geography faces new opportunities; 5. Internet of Things profoundly changes the scale and means of geographical study, providing a more micro and real-time research platform.
