Profile

  • Keywords: Urban and National Land Structure, Risk of Natural Disaster, Urban Sustainability, Triple Bottom Line

    In Japan, where population decline and aging have been exceeded, the sprawled urban area has become highly vulnerable to natural disasters, the decline of the accessibility to urban facilities or social services. We are studying the methodology to improve their risk in the broad sense.

    In this study, we conducted a survey on the relationship between the status of the formulation of location optimization plans and the designation of residential guidance areas in areas with high disaster risk and conducted the case studies on the change of residential patterns to improve disaster preparedness and Quality of Life (QOL) overseas. We developed a GIS database integrating micro-geodata, statistics, and map data, and an analysis of the decision-making process related to the promotion of relocation to residential guidance areas using micro-geodata. We analyzed the decision-making process of stakeholders (residents, private businesses, and local governments) related to the promotion of relocation to residential areas and analyzed the policies related to land-use and disaster risk reduction using micro-geodata.

    Facing big issues of population decline and aging, and aging of infrastructure in Japan. It is very important to examine restructuring urban form toward higher residential QOL (Quality of Life), lower infrastructure maintenance cost and environmental load. The case studies in Yamato town, Kamimashiki-gun, Kumamoto prefecture, Iki city, Nagasaki prefecture, and Miyazaki city, Miyazaki prefecture examined the timing of residential relocation and its effects.
