Abstract

Accessibility is an important index for evaluating the efficiency of rail stations. In view of the imbalance between the supply and demand of rail station settings and population distribution, this paper takes the Shijingshan District in Beijing as an example. Based on the Gaussian two-step floating catchment area method and Gaode map’s service interface, the accessibility of rail stations is simulated and analyzed in terms of both walking and riding. Combined with the calculation results, supply and demand relationship and trip time, the current characteristics and causes are analyzed, and the corresponding optimization suggestions are put forward. The main conclusions are as follows: (1) The accessibility distribution of rail stations in the Shijingshan District is relatively coordinated with the population distribution. The effectiveness of the accessibility assessment of rail stations can be further improved by improving the causal evaluation model with traditional calculation data; (2) The change of trip mode has a small impact on the accessibility of large stations, while small stations and areas with uneven station distribution can be improved by riding; (3) According to the K-value clustering method, the results of the two calculation methods are divided into five categories, and each category of demand units has different accessibility characteristics and causes; (4) Comprehensive accessibility is positively correlated with road density and population density.
