  ABSTRACT: From the ecological effect of urban green space system, this paper illustrates the necessity and importance of inter-disciplinary evaluation of the urban green space system from the ecological perspective and analyzes the mechanism of action of urban green space in relieving the heat island effect. The quantitative evaluation approach for the thermal environmental impact of urban green space system is proposed utilizing GIS technology. Zhuzhou is taken as an example for practical application of the approach. Lastly, priority issues in relation to urban green space system planning and quantitative evaluation are discussed.
