Study on improving landscapes and the efficient use of infrastructure for attractive local development

Attractive landscapes are indispensable for the rich living environment; they also increase the appeal of a region and play an important role in promoting the tourism industry and interregional exchanges. Thus, such attractive landscapes must be preserved, created and utilized well from the viewpoint of distinctive regional revitalization. The followings are three goals set in this project.

1. ①The development of a landscape evaluation technique for infrastructure in public works
2. ②The development of planning, design and management techniques to promote the landscape improvement of outdoor public spaces which enhance regional attractiveness
