Optimization and Zoning of Rural Residential Areas Based on Accessibility of Production and Living Transportation: A Case Study of MengLa County

Abstract

Spatial layout optimization of rural residential areas is an important part of rural revitalization. Mengla County, as a border county of Yunnan Province, has a large gap between urban and rural areas, and the layout of residential areas is relatively scattered. Therefore, it is of great significance to organize and optimize the spatial layout of rural residential areas. Based on the POI data and road network data information of Mengla County, with the help of ArcGIS tool, Arcpy batch processing, MCR model, OD cost matrix and other methods, the production and living transportation accessibility of rural residential areas in Mengla County was analyzed. The results show that the production and life transportation accessibility of the residential areas in the edge area of Mengla County is poor and the number is small, the transportation accessibility of the natural village gathering area in the urban center is high, and the high accessibility of natural villages between the north and the south is discontinuous. This study evaluated the traffic accessibility of rural settlements from the perspective of production and life traffic accessibility, identified the natural villages with weak traffic, classified the villages accordingly, and put forward corresponding improvement suggestions and strategies.
