Abstract—As the most important material carrier in urban space, street plays an important role in the formation of urban form. The description and analysis of street spatial form by traditional methods are mostly limited to a single spatial attribute, which is difficult to touch the complex coordination and evolution mechanism among the components of street spatial network system. Based on the complex network theory, this paper adopts the Space Syntax and Routegram to carry out quantitative analysis of urban street spatial network connection. Taking full account of the spatial characteristics and topological structure of streets, the research framework of urban street network connectivity was established, and the urban street spatial network comprehensive analysis method was constructed.
Index Terms—Urban street, spatial topological structure, semi-lattice topological structure, topological network structure, spatial network, space syntax.
