Urban environment with diversified solar radiation formed by rapid urbanization, has led to difficulties in plant selection and community configuration. In order to solve this problem, this study adopted some digital technologies, such as Geographic Information System (GIS), Microsoft Excel, and MATLAB software, to construct the Urban Landscape Plant Decision Support System (UP-DSS). For overall design, the “three-database” management subsystems are used to manage the canopy model, the solar radiation model, the plant community model and plant selection model, plant data and botany knowledge, respectively. Finally, we introduced the design process, controls and characteristic of the GUI of UP-DSS. The purpose of this research is to provide references for relevant theoretical research and practical work.
