Abstract：The spatial interaction is the human flow through different areas, which can make a more intelligent strategic decision of traffic planning, commercial location and many other industries.The paper aims at proposing a strategic analysis describing spatial interaction, and making an instantiation by check-in datum from some open social networks.There are four dimensions chosen to describe model: regional contact strength, natural flow index of internal users, entry index of external users and trip quality index, which can be estimated by popular check-in datum and have generality.The model firstly put many social networks' check-in datum together, then matches them and calculates the distance from beginning to the end.After making a instantiation, the model provides data visualization solutions.The result shows that the strategic analysis has the ability of reflecting the cities' spatial dynamic structure, providies advisory information to users of lots of types of industries.
