This paper proposes a spatial data attribute similarity measure method based on granular computing closeness. This method uses the distance and membership degree of different index levels of spatial entities to measure the similarity of attributes. It not only reflects the degree of similarity of spatial entity types at different index levels but also reflects the integration similarity between spatial entity types under a comprehensive index. This method embodies the layered idea of granular computing and can provide a basis for spatial problem decision making and for spatial entity classification. Finally, the feasibility and applicability of the method are verified by taking the similarity measure of the land-use type attribute in Guangxi as an example.
