Abstract: Based on the precise logical analysis method, the paper constructs a comprehensive evaluation model of transportation superiority in terms of transportation network density, the influence of transportation arteries, and regional location-specific advantages, then select Southwest China as a case to evaluate the transportation superiority and analyze the correlations of transportation with regional economic development and population distribution. The results show that there is a positive correlation between regional transportation superiority and regional population density as well as GDP per capita in the spatial distribution. Finally, by using the fuzzy logic analysis method, we propose countermeasures and suggestions for the impact of transportation integration on regional economic development and population distribution.
