Popis: Urban underground space, as an underutilized land resource, holds tremendous potential and value. Efficient and rational development and utilization of this resource are key to addressing current urban challenges. This study takes the main urban area of Qingdao City as an example and establishes a comprehensive evaluation system for the suitability of urban underground space development at different depth levels through the integration of geological, hydrological, and urban planning factors. By utilizing the Analytic Hierarchy Process to assign weights to evaluation criteria within the system, both a multi-objective linear weighting function model and a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model are employed to assess the suitability of underground space development. The results delineate the distribution of underground space development suitability within the study area. Comparative analysis of the two models reveals that the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model offers a more detailed and comprehensive reflection of the complexity and diversity of underground space development, providing forward-looking and insightful evaluation results for urban planning and development. The evaluation indicates that certain streets within the main urban area of Qingdao exhibit excellent prospects for underground space development.
