A Japanese-French Joint Research on Constructing Regional Information System in Urban Areas holding historical assets.

本研究是在2003年至2005年的3年时间里，在日本和法国拥有历史资产的城市中进行的。本研究的目的是开发一个统一的系统，可以管理不同的信息，如土地使用，真实的房地产，建筑，文化资产，景观，居民的属性，并建立一个新的信息系统，利用历史资产的城市规划有用。通过实地调查收集历史资产信息，以现有的GIS数据为基础进行分层分析，并利用GPS对游客的运动动态进行捕捉和分析。CG模拟考虑了建筑与历史景观之间的理想关系。在日本的镰仓、金泽、横滨、小田原etc.in以及法国和比利时的尼斯、南希、里昂、列日进行了详细的案例研究，以建立一个数字空间档案，将收集到的历史资产信息整合在一起。研究中出现了新的历史建筑类别，并重新评估了包括工业遗产在内的现代建筑资产。安排一个连接两国学术领域和城市的研究平台也是这项研究的一个重要目标，从2003年开始，在东京、京都、镰仓、金泽、横滨、名古屋连续举办了一系列题为“日法城市会议”的国际会议，在会上，考虑到历史资产、景观、与会者介绍并讨论了城市环境中的种族问题。

This research has been carried out in urban cities holding historical assets in Japan and France in the span of 3 years from 2003 to 2005. The aim of this research is to develop a unified system that can manage diverse information, such as land-use, real estates, architecture, cultural assets, landscape, inhabitant's attribution, and to construct a new information system useful for urban planning utilizing historical assets. Information on historical assets is collected through field research to be layered and analyzed on the existing GIS datum as case studies, and the dynamics of the tourist's movement is captured and analyzed by using GPS. CG simulation has been made to consider the ideal relation between architecture and the historical landscape. Detailed case studies were performed in Kamakura, Kanazawa, Yokohama, Odawara etc.in Japan, and in Nice, Nancy, Lyon, Liege in France and Belgium, to construct a digital spatial archive integrating the collected information on historical assets. New categories of historical architecture emerged from the research, and modern architectural assets including industrial heritages were re-evaluated. The arrangement of a research platform linking the academic field and autonomies in the two countries was also an important goal of this research, and a continuous series of an international conference entitled "Japanese-French Conference on Urban cities" was operated from 2003 in Tokyo, Kyoto, Kamakura, Kanazawa, Yokohama, Nagoya, where outcomes of research considering historical assets, landscapes, ethnicity in urban environment has been presented and discussed among the participants.
