Abstract
The urban park performs various roles such as evacuation, scenery and the ecosystem as well as a playground of regional inhabitants. In this study, selection of urban parks location was carried out using GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Satellite Remote Sensing in hillside city Nagasaki, where urban park area per capita is below national average. The proposed sites of new urban parks were selected from attribute data including existing park, population, slope distance from evacuation and NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index). Additionally, land cost was calculated from land price for using as one of the methods for selecting the location of city parks.
