At present, the planning of transmission lines mainly relies on human decision-making and lacks intelligence. This paper combines the advantages of GIS in processing spatial data with the advantages of genetic algorithm to explore the optimization method of transmission line planning. The combination of GIS and genetic algorithm can minimize the interference of human factors and quickly solve the path planning problem of transmission lines. According to the theoretical model of genetic algorithm, this study constructs the transmission line optimization model based on genetic algorithm, and realizes the Add-ins plug-in development of the transmission line planning model based on genetic algorithm with the help of C # language. Taking 500 kV overhead transmission line about 150 km from Jiantang Substation (starting point) in Shangri-La County to Tai’ an Substation (ending point) in Lijiang as an example, two groups of experiments are designed under the conditions of considering traffic single factor and comprehensive multi-factor respectively. It is obtained that the path optimization effect of genetic algorithm is the best under the condition of comprehensive multi-factor, which proves the rationality and superiority of the model constructed in this study.
