춘천시 도시경관의 구조적 변천과 바람직한 경관계획 전략 = Structural Changes and Desirable Planning Strategies of Chuncheon's Urban Landscape

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The first objective of this study is to analyze temporal changes of landscape structures including land uses, land cover types, and landscape patterns for Chuncheon to explore potential impacts on ecological landscape functions. The second objective is to analyze visual problems by landscape type on a micro-scale and to suggest desirable planning strategies of the urban landscape. Developed lands were increased by 2 times for about one generation from 1974 to 1999, while forest and agricultural lands were decreased by 23% and 40%, respectively. Hard surfaces in developed lands were increased by 31% for the time period.
Thus, rash urban sprawls and highly dense developments caused reduction of greenspace area both in the suburbs and in the urban core, although urban greenspace is a major agent in maintaining sound ecological functions. The city requires a systematic master plan to determine rational limits for the size and capacity of each land uses. The city also should improve the urban landscape to create the identity as a green city and the amenity of living environments, including not merely spatial organization and skylines but street, residential, stream, and park/greenspace landscapes.
