Abstract

After gradually planned into city built area, urban rail transit stations have been fusing development with original space, which resulting in a series of new phenomena, problems, and rules need to research deeply and optimizing. As the carrier of event, a precise definition of the radiation realm of transit stations is basic to in-depth knowledge. After the analysis of traditional definition method to radiation realm, academic research sums up the characteristics of “influence” of station to the surrounding city space, which concluded multi-dimensional, multi-level, interactive, timeliness. Based on the platform of Anylogic and ArcGIS, the authors put forward the concept of influenced urban realm around station and finally establish the frontier method of definition after rethinking the rules of definition in integrated thinking, in order to provide a solid foundation to progressive solving the problems in the realm of different levels, and the whole city sustainable development.
