Title:Development of an Urban Rail Transit Line Design System Using 3D GIS-Integrated Building Information Modeling: A Case Study in Urban Traffic Optimization
Abstract:The rapid pace of urbanization has exacerbated traffic congestion, necessitating innovative solutions to enhance urban mobility. This study presents a novel urban rail transit line design system leveraging a three-dimensional Geographic Information System (3D GIS) integrated with Building Information Modeling (BIM). The system integrates K-means clustering algorithms and GIS functionalities to generate optimized rail transit designs. Performance tests confirm the system's reliability and effectiveness, revealing significant advantages in design time, cost, and scientific precision compared to traditional methods. Notably, the system achieved 86% user satisfaction, though only 24% expressed willingness to adopt it, primarily due to cultural and implementation challenges. This research highlights the potential of combining GIS and BIM technologies for sustainable urban traffic solutions, while underscoring the need to address human-centric considerations for widespread acceptance.
