The construction of data factor market is an important cornerstone for the implementation of the development strategy of digital China and digital economy. At present, China's data factor market is in the early stage of development, with rich data resource reserves but high imbalance in market development, it is of great theoretical and practical significance to clearly understand the state of data factor market development. According to the basic connotation of data factor marketization, this paper constructs the index system of data factor marketization, and measures the development level of 31 provinces in China from 2011 to 2023 by using the entropy weight TOPSIS method, and further analyzes the temporal and spatial evolution characteristics of data factor marketization with the help of the method of intrinsic microstate. The results of the study objectively reflect the overall situation, core drivers, problems and regional characteristics of the current development of China's data factor market, and provide a basis for the subsequent formulation of data factor market policies and the promotion of the integration of the national data factor market.
