An integrated 3-dimensional model to measure the efficiency of water usage is established.The spatial relations of water and its efficiency in use are explored.Studies show that the efficiency of water usage in the provinces of China has not only an obvious spatial difference,but also has a significant spatial correlation.Efficiency of water usage in one province is affected by those of the neighboring provinces.The change of 1% in the efficiency of water usage in surrounding provinces will rise 1.2% in this province on average.The results cna be used as reference for improving overall water e...
