城市人口失去自由和绿色空间及其相关优势是对城市可持续性的重大威胁。种植屋顶以使它们在城市组织中充当自然过滤器的想法越来越被认为是一种有潜力大幅减少城市中心环境问题的技术。在许多国家，出台了专门的法律，为公民提供激励，甚至涉及建造绿色屋顶的义务。本文提出的研究目的是利用地理信息系统(GIS)技术和专业软件相结合，调查和记录使用绿色屋顶对制定旨在改善城市环境质量的城市政策的影响。将所开发的方法框架应用于一个希腊中等城市的真实世界案例研究。综合地理信息系统环境的使用不仅有助于提高研究质量，而且使人们有可能不断更新信息和监测影响屋顶绿化政策发展的因素。
The loss of free and green spaces and their associated advantages for the urban population is a major threat for urban sustainability. The idea of planting roofs in order for them to act as natural filters within the urban tissue has been increasingly recognized as a technology that has the potential to diminish drastically the environmental problems of urban centers. In many countries, special laws are introduced which provide citizens with incentives or even involve an obligation to build green roofs. The objective of the research presented herein is to investigate and record the impact of the use of green roofs for the development of urban policies which aim at improving the quality of urban environment, using a combination of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) technology and specialized software. The developed methodological framework is applied to a real-world case study of a medium – sized Greek city. The use of a comprehensive GIS environment not only contributes to improving the quality of research but also offers the possibility of continuous updated information and monitoring of the factors that influence the development of green roof policies.
