Research on the utilization of urban structure visualization in geography education of high school

Abstract

With the declining population, efforts are underway to realize an intensive urban structure. The importance of consensus building in determining the future image of urban structure is undisputed, and for this reason, it is urgent to deepen the public's understanding of urban structure. "Urban structure visualization," which is a communication tool for urban structure, has been widely used in urban planning sites nationwide after 15 years of its development. On the other hand, as a result of 15 years of efforts in the field of geography education, high school geography education has become compulsory. In this paper, we will discuss the background and achievements of the fusion of these two efforts over the history, and the future development of urban structure visualization by all the people who have contributed to the efforts.
