Abstract:

In this paper mathematics models for timber logistics centers location were set up and genetics algorithms were applied to solve the problem.Baseed on the models and algorithms，an integrated development on the application system of centers location was carried out where ArcGIS was adopted as its development platform and VB as its programming language.Based on the study object Yong'an Forestry Group Co.，Ltd，a timber logistics spatial database was built on which a primary location decision was practiced through the application system.

Key words: timber logistics centers, location, genetics algorithms
