Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to urban transportation network assessment methods, specifically to a method for the collaborative assessment of urban agglomeration rail transit networks and station area land use. Background Technology

[0002] With the gradual development of metropolitan areas and urban agglomerations, rail transit has become the preferred mode of transportation for residents due to its advantages such as high capacity and punctuality. The gradual improvement of urban agglomeration rail transit can effectively promote regional integration and help guide the development of areas along the lines. In the era of networked rail transit development, scientifically assessing the synergy between the topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit networks and the land use of station areas has significant practical value and strategic importance for optimizing the functional layout of station areas and for TOD (Transit-Oriented Development) planning and design.

[0003] To evaluate the synergy between the topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit networks and the land use of station areas, key technologies are needed. These include: first, constructing urban agglomeration rail transit networks based on their operational status; second, measuring the land use level of station areas from multiple dimensions; and third, quantitatively assessing the degree of synergistic development between the topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit networks and the land use of station areas.

[0004] The existing related technology, "A Method, Device, Medium, and Product for Determining the Integration Degree of Railway Passenger Stations with Urban Areas" (Patent No. CN202410491681.X), mainly uses a "node-place-perception" model to determine the integration degree of railway stations with urban areas. It reflects the node situation in four dimensions: railway service, transportation transfer, road traffic, and slow-moving network; and the place situation in four aspects: functional integration, human activity, land development, and place spirit. However, this method only analyzes railway stations, and the node dimension cannot accurately reflect the importance of stations within the comprehensive urban rail transit network system. Furthermore, existing related technologies for evaluating comprehensive urban rail transit networks focus on network planning evaluation (e.g., "Evaluation Method for Network Planning of Urban Rail Transit Based on Gray Fuzzy Design," Patent Application No. CN202310790677.9), with little research on the evaluation of the synergy between the topological characteristics of urban rail transit networks and land use in station areas. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Purpose of the invention: To address the problem in existing technologies that make it difficult to coordinate the evaluation of the topological characteristics of multi-level rail transit networks and the land use level of station areas within urban agglomerations, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method for the coordinated evaluation of urban agglomeration rail transit networks and station area land use.

[0006] This invention proposes a method for evaluating the synergy between the topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit networks and the land use level of station areas, using a two-dimensional model of "topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit networks - land use level of station areas" in three parts.

[0007] First, this invention constructs a model of urban agglomeration rail transit networks and establishes an evaluation dataset for the topological characteristics of these networks. Utilizing physical network data and train timetable data from multiple levels of rail transit within urban agglomerations, including high-speed rail, conventional rail, intercity rail, suburban rail, subway, and light rail, this invention extracts the physical connection networks of each station and the train operation network to construct a two-tiered regional-urban rail transit network model. It then calculates the topological characteristics of the urban agglomeration rail transit network. By using these topological characteristics to reflect the node value of urban agglomeration rail transit stations, this invention comprehensively considers the interactive effects of different types of rail transit and reflects the attribute differences of urban agglomeration rail transit stations across multiple dimensions, including region, station area, and station level, providing a more refined and comprehensive understanding.

[0008] Secondly, this invention establishes a land use evaluation system for the station area and constructs a land use level dataset. The invention establishes an evaluation index system from three dimensions: land development benefits, land value-added benefits, and land vitality benefits. This system includes nine sub-indicators: land mix, land development intensity, average land transfer price per unit area, average housing price, total land transfer revenue, average nighttime light index, public facility density, enterprise density, and the proportion of park green space. Simultaneously, the global Moran index is used to determine the weights of each indicator. This evaluation scheme possesses strong objectivity and can comprehensively measure the land use development level of the station area.

[0009] Third, this invention constructs a "topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit network - land use level of station areas" model to quantitatively assess the degree of synergy between urban agglomeration rail transit network indicators and station area land use levels. This invention establishes an evaluation model of "topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit network - land use level of station areas," and combines it with an affinity propagation clustering algorithm to analyze the degree of synergy between network indicators and station area land use levels of urban agglomeration rail transit stations. This effectively assesses the current land use status of station areas and provides a basis for subsequent planning layout adjustments and urban design optimization.

[0010] Technical solution: The method for collaborative assessment of urban agglomeration rail transit network and station area land use is characterized by the following steps: (1) Construct a two-layer network model of urban rail transit and calculate the network topology characteristics; (2) Construct a land use level evaluation system for rail transit station areas and calculate the land use level of station areas; (3) Normalize the network topology features and land use level, and evaluate the synergy based on the affinity propagation clustering algorithm to obtain the synergy classification results.

[0011] Further, the method of step S1: (1.1) Obtain data on urban rail transit stations, lines, and train timetables; (1.2) Construct regional rail transit network layer and urban rail transit network layer based on SPACE-L method, and establish cross-layer connections; (1.3) Calculate the multi-level node degree centrality, multi-level strength centrality, multi-level intermediary centrality and multi-level PageRank centrality to obtain the network topology feature dataset.

[0012] Furthermore, in step (1.2): Within the regional rail transit network layer, a virtual variable indicating whether there are connections between nodes, based on operational information, can be represented as: The edge weights within the regional rail transit layer are represented as follows: , Regional rail transit layer node matrix With edge matrix The set is , Within the urban rail transit network layer, based on operational information, the virtual variable indicating whether there are connections between nodes can be represented as: , The edge weights within the rail transit layer are represented as follows: , Urban rail transit layer node matrix With edge matrix The set is , The weight of cross-layer edges is represented as follows: , in, The average walking speed is taken as 6 km / h. For passing stations The cumulative daily average number of rail transit trips across all regions; For passing stations The cumulative daily average number of train trips across all urban rail transit services, and the set of cross-layer connections between the regional rail transit and urban rail transit networks are as follows: .

[0013] Further, step (2) includes the following methods: (2.1) Constructing a land use evaluation index system with three dimensions: land development benefits, land value-added benefits, and land vitality benefits, comprising nine sub-indicators; (2.2) Calculating the sub-indicator values ​​corresponding to each station based on POI data, land transfer data, housing price data, nighttime light data, and green space AOI data; (2.3) Determining the weight of each sub-indicator using the global Moran index and calculating the land use level of the station area. .

[0014] Furthermore, the nine sub-indicators include: land mixing degree Land development intensity Average unit price of land transfer Average house price and total land transfer revenue Average nighttime light index Public facility density Enterprise density and the proportion of park green space .

[0015] Furthermore, step (3) specifically includes: (3.1) network topology characteristics , , , and land use level

[0016] Normalization was performed; (3.2) The normalized data was clustered using the affinity propagation clustering algorithm; (3.3) Based on the clustering results and the scatter plot distribution of station network values ​​and land use level values ​​in the "Urban Agglomeration Rail Transit Network Topology Characteristics - Station Area Land Use Level" model, the synergy was divided into five categories: high network level and high land use level, balanced development, low network level and low land use level, high network level and low land use level, and low network level and high land use level.

[0017] Furthermore, the normalization processing method: .

[0018] Furthermore, the method also includes: visualizing the collaborative classification results in a two-dimensional coordinate system of land use level of the urban agglomeration rail transit network topology feature station area.

[0020] A computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, implements the method as claimed in claim 1.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1) A two-layer network model of urban agglomeration rail transit based on actual operational conditions was constructed, and the topological characteristics of the urban agglomeration rail transit network were obtained, including multi-layer node degree centrality, multi-layer strength centrality, multi-layer betweenness centrality, and multi-layer PageRank centrality. Traditional rail transit station evaluation systems require information at the regional, station area, and station levels, such as station location and station grade, and cannot comprehensively consider the interactive effects of different types of rail transit. The urban agglomeration rail transit network topological characteristic indicators adopted in this invention, based on considering the interactive effects of different types of rail transit, reflect the attribute differences of urban agglomeration rail transit stations in multiple dimensions such as region, station area, and station, making them more refined and comprehensive.

[0022] 2) A comprehensive land use evaluation system for rail transit station areas was proposed.

[0023] 3) A model of "topological characteristics of urban agglomeration rail transit network - land use level of station area" was constructed. Combined with the affinity propagation clustering algorithm, urban agglomeration rail transit stations were clustered to effectively optimize the accuracy of the synergy evaluation results.
