Logistics network is a spatial structure composed of nodes and links. Nodes is the core of this network

and through factor analysis and cluster analysis

we can clarify the hierarchical structure of nodes. However

as to the nodes on the same layer

their coverage region hasn't been clearly classified

which restricts the development of regional logistics taking single node as the center. Taking Jinan

one of the 21 logistics nodes all over the country

as an example

through factor analysis

we can have a clear idea about the comprehensive strength of logistics nodes and through cluster analysis

we can find the hierarchical structure of logistics nodes. The main goal of selecting logistic operation is to minimize the cost

to balance the cost of logistics

and to clarify the demarcation point of nodes in the same layer. The research result has realistic guiding significance to the function orientation of regional logistics center and market orientation of logistic enterprise in this area.
