Abstract

This study conducted an empirical analysis to enhance landscape ecological performance in urban spaces using landscape ecology. To do so, concrete criteria and standards to analyze structural, functional and variational mechanisms of urban landscape ecology was developed. Combining the criteria, an integrated landscape ecology assessment model that can be applied to urban planning was established. Next, a GIS based Landscape Ecological Management System (LEMS) was created to realize an integrated assessment model. To verify the effectiveness of the model, a scenario analysis was conducted using a developed system on Byulne City in the Seoul Metropolitan Area. The results presented quantitative results and spatial solutions for each alternative. These results can be useful for urban planners and policy makers in their selection of desirable alternatives.
