Abstract :
The logistics´ low efficiency has increasingly restricted the development of e-commerce, whereas the underground logistics system in cities had the characteristics of automatism, speediness, timing and safety. Regarding the advantages and disadvantages of various network models with the city´s specialties and e-commerce´s demands, we should plan the underground channels and construct the information platform to resolve the logistics´ restriction by means of powerful data functions in GIS.
