Support System for Residents' Activities for Improving District Living Environment Based on Field Measurement

本研究的目的是透过个案研究探讨支援居民改善居住环境活动的方法。在案例研究中，我们支持居民对居住环境的实地测量，通过问卷调查，绘制环境地图，召开居民会议讨论如何改善他们的生活环境，并将申请文件发送给崎玉和东京县的居民社区负责人，以招募居民社区进行案例研究。最后，我们选择了四个社区(1.旧商业区和住宅区，2.火车站附近商业区的高层公寓，3.邻近工厂的日本住宅公司建造的公寓区，4.指定为重建区的火车站附近的商业区的高层公寓，在所有居民社区中，我们和社区成员讨论居住环境因素，根据居民回答的问卷结果进行测量和绘制地图。我们支持居民测量交通量、路灯照度、二氧化氮浓度、噪音水平、气味强度和路边停车数量。我们支持居民根据问卷调查获得的环境地图和居民的意识，讨论他们的居住环境现状和改善方法。在这些案例研究的基础上，我们制作了居住环境测量手册、居民意识调查手册、会议和沟通手册作为支持系统的一部分，并开发了居住环境实际状况数据库。

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.
