Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to examine the methods of supporting residents' activities to improve their living environment through case studies. In the case studies, we supported residents' field measurements for living environment, residents' awareness survey using questionnaire, making environment map, and residents' meetings to discuss how to improve their living environment. To recruit residents' communities for the case studies, we sent the application documents to the heads of residents' communities in Saitama and Tokyo prefecture. Finally we selected the four communities (1.the district with old shopping area and residential area, 2.the high-rise apartment houses in the commercial district near a railway station, 3.the district with apartment houses constructed by Japanese Housing Corporation where a factory is adjacent, 4. the high-rise apartment houses in the commercial district near a railway station appointed for redevelopment district. In all the residents' community, we and members of the community discussed about the living environmental factors to measure and make maps based on the result of the questionnaire answered by residents. We supported the residents' measurements for the traffic volume, the illuminance of the streetlights, the density of the nitrogen dioxide, the noise level, the odor intensity and the number of on-the-street parking. We supported the residents' discussions about actual states of their living environment and ways to improve it based on the environment maps and awareness of the residents gained by the questionnaire survey. Based on these case studies, we made manuals for measurement for living environment, for residents' awareness survey, for the meeting and communications as parts of the support system and we developed data base for actual states of living environment.
