[Objective]Designing an effective road network is essential for constructing a comprehensive training platform.The proposed design integrates various traffic elements,enhances the authenticity of road network simulations,saves construction space,maximizes the integrated role of the sand table,and improves the comprehensiveness of the platform.Based on a multitype road network structure,different types of traffic facilities can be laid,which can replicate intelligent transportation application scenes.Then,the road elements can be enriched according to the requirements of the sand table and the actual road scene.Diversified road network design of training platforms can better facilitate platform construction and intelligent transportation personnel training.[Methods]A diversified road network design scheme is proposed to address the current and future requirements for intelligent transportation and personnel training.This involves comparing and analyzing different design schemes using multidimensional characteristic evaluation indices.This paper evaluates existing sand table applications and proposes five road network design schemes to meet different application requirements:① customization-based road network design,② modularization-based road network design,③ projection-based road network design,④ electronic screen-based road network design,and ⑤ print-based road network design.Each scheme supports diverse application scenarios,such as teaching demonstrations,scientific research experiments,popular science exhibitions,and professional competitions.[Results]This study analyzes the functional differences among the five proposed road network design schemes,evaluating them based on multidimensional characteristic evaluation indices.These indexes include function display degree,cost advantage,deployment convenience,display effect,intelligent vehicle applicability,secondary expansion,occupied area,practical operation,and service life.Each scheme is compared from technical perspectives,typical application scenarios,advantages and disadvantages,improvement directions,and development trends.[Conclusions]To adapt to the development of intelligent transportation and meet personnel training needs,this research proposes five road network design schemes.These schemes provide guidance and reference for designing and selecting road networks for practical teaching,scientific research,exhibitions,and other purposes.They enhance the simulation effect between simulation road networks and real-world road conditions,improve the application effectiveness of scientific research,practical training,and exhibitions,and facilitate the training of intelligent transportation talents.The results provide guidance and reference for cost control and functional design of road network design throughout the platform's life cycle.By guiding the construction of high-quality practical training platforms,this study can support high-quality construction projects and efficient personnel training.It also has far-reaching implications for actively serving the current needs of intelligent and connected road traffic systems.
