Abstract: At present, the research on the spatial pattern of urbanization is based on the application of GIS technology to the urban and rural developments. At the same time, the methods of big data statistics are adopted. However, there are problems in the analysis of the spatial pattern of some cities and towns. In re-sponse to these problems, based on the analysis and comparison of the current practice of applying GIS in the spatial analysis of urbanization ， by adopting data analysis and other technologies, with the existing urban information and in-depth study of urban development methods, how to improve the analysis of urban spatial pattern characteristics supported by GIS technology is discussed. The conclusion of the experiment is obtained through the analysis of the results of the existing five surveys. The results show that GIS technology is an effective technique of analyzing characteristics of urban spatial patterns.
