Abstract Large-capacity public transportation systems, represented by urban metro
lines, are the key to alleviating the significant increase in urbanization and motorization
in China. But to improve the agglomeration effect of metro stations in a more accurate
and targeted way requires scientific evaluation and classification of the surrounding
areas of metro stations. As spatial and functional design are the core factors for urban
renewal design, this study took Beijing as an example, using multi-source data to
evaluate the morphology and functional composition surrounding areas of metro
stations, and the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) matrix was used to classify and
characterize each type of surrounding areas from morphological-functional dimensions.
It shows a negative correlation of the mix-use index with the floor area ratio, and only
about 20% of the areas achieve the ideal situation of high construction intensity with
high mix-use diversity. Hoping to provide a reference for city managers and designers
in dealing with the surrounding metro stations with different construction intensities in
a more precise way.
