In order to quantitatively evaluate the qualitative problem of campus landscape comfort of Southwest University of Science and Technology, based on the principles of landscape design, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP method) and comprehensive index method are used to establish a reasonable overall landscape evaluation model for the university campus. Firstly, professional teachers are invited to compare the importance of various factors of the landscape to determine the weight of each evaluation factor, and then conduct a field survey on various factors of the landscape of Southwest University of Science and Technology, and select representative sample plots for questionnaire survey and statistics. Finally, the comfort score evaluation and comprehensive evaluation grade analysis of the overall campus landscape are carried out. The results show that the campus landscape in the Southwest University of Science and Technology is generally better, and there is still much room for improvement. By summarizing and analyzing the existing problems of the campus landscape and putting forward suggestions for optimization, it aims to provide a certain reference for the future campus landscape construction.
