Abstract:Transport nodes are the distribution cores of different transportation infrastructures and people and goods flows. Scientific identification and setting of transport center nodes is the key to comprehensive transportation research under the Background of land space planning. There are some researches on comprehensive transport planning and transport nodes, but there are still some problems in the identification of transport center nodes, such as insufficient consideration of index system factors, information loss caused by calculation methods, and no county-level accuracy research at the national level. In this study, a central node evaluation index system covering 18 indicators from political strategy, social economy, transportation, and land and ecology was constructed. Using expert assignment method and multidimensional magic cube technology, 687 county-level central nodes were identified and divided into three levels. The selected center node has good comprehensive service and coverage level. This study can provide scientific reference for the planning and construction of comprehensive three-dimensional transport network at different levels in China, and help the coordinated development of traffic power construction and land space development and protection.
