Currently, a spatial approach is becoming in demand, permeating the entire vertical of documents being developed aimed at implementing the state policy of territorial development. The spatial approach involves the study of the coexistence and interaction of multilevel and single-level objects (elements) forming the economic space. In this regard, there is an urgent need to identify the features of the methodology of spatial economic analysis. The article discusses the features of the formation of the methodology for spatial economic analysis, including: the logic of constructing a research scheme, the identified patterns of coexistence and interaction of objects, the principles of formation, a systematic approach to the use of spatial economic analysis, methods and ways of conducting spatial economic analysis, spatial data information base, instrumental techniques of spatial economic analysis, etc. It is concluded that the methodology of spatial economic analysis acquires a more complete form and provides a relationship between theoretical and practical competencies in the application of the spatial approach in the development of normative documents of the state policy of territorial development.
Keywords: methodology, economic space, spatial approach, spatial economic analysis, state policy of territorial development.
