Abstract
In the case of evaluating the distribution of green tracts in an urban area, it is required to investigate not only the sum of area but also the scattering of the green tracts. The objective of this study is to develop an analysis method for the distribution of the green tracts in an urban area. The number of small-scale green tracts, such as pocket park, have been increasing in urban area in recent years. Therefore, we took 4 types of green tracts as a reference of the comparison considering small-scale green tracts. We also examined three indices of the scattering of the green tracts. As the results, it was shown that entropy played important role to classify the distribution of green tracts. In addition, it was revealed that the 4 types of green tracts explained appropriately the green tract distribution in our test site.
