Location Selection of a Great Sports Event Logistics Distribution Center Based on GIS and a Genetic Algorithm

The location selection of logistics distribution center is of important strategic significance to optimize modern logistics system. This kind of algorithm based on GIS and genetic algorithm is established on the basis of analysis of traditional location selection algorithm of logistics distribution center. First of all, the elementary logistics distribution center selection and its influence factors are determined. Then influence factors of location selection are analyzed by means of GIS spatial analysis techniques and a serial of candidate sites are obtained. Finally, the best logistics distribution center location was obtained on the basis of genetic algorithm. With the development of modern great sports event, it has been focused on the politics, economy and culture to great sports event. The sponsor takes importance on how to hold the great sports event successfully. So this paper studies on the location selection of great sports event logistics distribution center in combination with GIS and genetic algorithm by means of the method of theory model and example analysis. The conclusion is that the location selection of great sports event logistics distribution center based on GIS and genetic algorithm can benefit to the development of modern great sports event and provide some valuable reference theoretically and practically and shorten the cost of great sports event logistics.
