Practical 12-- Final Assembly
***
There is a small piece of business hanging over from the Visual analysis
section of the class:
To help in a methodological study of on-line surveys of the kind you
have used in class,
please participate in this:
Survey of Perceived
Hazards in the Urban Landscape
Final Project Presentation
Wednesday, December 8, 10:30 - 11:50
Approx. 12 mins per group INCLUDING discussion time.
Please prepare so that you can be brief but still good - I suggest
using the summary pages from the components of your web-site - no more
than 10 PowerPoint slides' worth.
Final Project Format
-
Introduction and Index of links to other sections (index.htm)
-
More complete explanation of proposed land-use change goals, assumptions
etc.
-
Economic evaluation of proposed land-use changes
-
Cost analysis
-
Benefits analysis
-
Discounting and "bottom line"
-
Visual quality analysis
-
Development of visual quality evaluation form
-
Comparison of Survey of preferences and Visual quality evaluations
-
Implications of proposed changes on visual quality
-
Environmental Services analysis (CITYGreen)
-
Energy cost implications
-
Stormwater implications
-
Wildlife and Plant habitat potential
-
Cultural and Historical resources implications
-
Summary statement of the economic, social, and environmental viability
of your proposal
Wildlife and Plant Habitat Potential
of Land in Emerson Park
-
Consider the land-use change you have proposed and investigate the wildlife
and plant habitat implications and opportunities.
-
Use EGRETS/ArcView
to identify patches, corridors, matrices, of habitat value.
-
Use CITYGreen Analysis to indicate the wildlife values of the existing
situation and your proposed changes
-
Prepare a brief report as part of your land-use evaluation homepage, linked
to maps, illustrations and other relevant reports within the ESLARP
on-line resources.
-
The report should take into account what you know about any other open
space resources in the region, and any assumptions and guesses based on
your own knowledge of the area. Describe:
-
how your proposed development might impact wildlife and plant habitat resources
through expansion or reduction of areas of native vegetation, development
of habitat corridors etc.
-
Use the WWW to find out about the area through EGRETS and any other means.
Think about hunting, hiking/nature study, and other potentials.
On-line Resources
Cultural/Historical Resource Implications
of Land-use Change in Emerson Park
-
Consider the land-use change proposed and any plausible cultural historical
implications.
-
Use EGRETS/ArcView to identify
sites of cultural/historical value.
-
Prepare a brief report as part of your land-use evaluation homepage, linked
to maps, illustrations and other relevant reports within the ESLARP
on-line resources.
-
The report should describe:
-
how your proposed development might negatively impact cultural and historical
resources through building activity, flooding etc. or
-
how the proposal might protect a resource from either being misguidedly
destroyed, or from being "loved to death."
