Outline of Final Research Achievements

The correlation between spatial properties and risk of infection disease was analyzed by using the influenza data of Tokyo’s Katsushika Ward. It was cleared that the area rate of commercial facilities and transportation facilities relate to the influenza infection rate of “under 15-year old” in the area of a radius of 1km.
On the hypothesis that the situation of urban space influences on the resident's activity, the group with infected experience and another group without it were compared. Based on the type and use frequency of facilities minors use regularly, it was cleared that the use frequency of public facilities, restaurants and friend’s house, relate to infected experience of “over 10-year old”. By paying attention to the work style, it was cleared that the risk of infection disease of worker in Tokyo’s downtown area correlate with the occupation that talks frequently and the personal space of approximately 10 square meters in work place.
