A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON EVALUATION OF DISTRICT ENVIRONMENTAL METHOD USING REMOTE SENSING OF TM IKONOS DATA FOR HEALTHY CITY NO2 - A CASE STUDY IN URBAN AREAS OF TOKYO BAY 2000 -

摘要

At 5:46 a.m. on January 17th, 1995, the worst disaster in postwar Japan changed Kobe. The ratio of the Kobe Government's houses destroyed by fire came to 98.9% in all of the burned out area. As it turned out, the houses and other buildings densely packed in the narrow streets in the city center may have been the main factor of this Kobe urban disaster. We have been pointing out the importance of the risk forecast of overcrowdedness of the wooden houses. This paper examines a report on the urban areas of Tokyo Bay in the event that it were to suffer similar damage in the future. In addition, two analysis of district characteristics were done using surveying urban geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing. The healthy city level was estimated by methods using remote sensing from Landsat TM & IKONOS data. Also the relationship between Urban Index(UI) and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI) was determined. We proposed that UI relates to the overcrowded ratio, and NDVI relates to healthy city level. We attempted to improve the GIS and remote sensing as effective methods for good urban design tools.
