Research and development of intelligent decision support system for distribution network planning based on GIS

the complexity of distribution network planning is manifested in the characteristics of large scale, uncertainty, imprecision, many factors and wide fields involved. It is far from satisfying the requirements of modern distribution network planning by relying only on the planning experience of planners. Therefore, developing an intelligent decision-making system for distribution network planning can not only reduce the labor intensity of the planning staff, but also improve the scientific decision-making level of distribution network planning as a whole, which has important academic and practical significance. The introduction of Geographic Information System (GIS) platform into distribution network planning system can greatly facilitate the collection and management of planning data, improve the labor productivity of planners, and make the planning process more intuitive and interactive. This paper discusses the basic principle and overall structure of the intelligent decision support system for distribution network planning based on GIS, and focuses on the method of applying GIS to the optimal planning of distribution network.
