With the rising of number of population and its business, transportation and mobility also rises. Jakarta has the highest number of vehicles and the most polluted metropolitan , as the main problem for Jakarta is the degradation of the environment quality caused by air pollution. Beside poor air quality also affects the physical quality and the population’s psychic which are lung problems, and chronic stress. So, an in-between space is needed as a neutralizer with the purpose of balancing the thinking patters and human health. This neutralizer could be achieved with Matraman Vertical Park. With a total area of about 5.000 m², this place gives humans to “Stop” and “Think” and react positively about the surrounding environment. The site is located between the borders of Jakarta Pusat and Jakarta Timur, specifically, at the intersection of Jl. Salemba Raya and Jl. Pramuka Raya. Matraman Vertical Park is an botanical–garden-integrated public and social space which reacts to the degradation of environment quality in Jakarta. Matraman Vertical Park applies the concept of Third Place which gives human the space to socialize and provide an entertainment that contribute positively to the city environment. The program of this building is open to public and with a purpose for the development of human and the environment. An Interaction space is presented with the concept of morphosis environment to the building’s spaction for visitors. Abstrak Aktivitas transportasi dan mobilitas terus bertambah seiring dengan meningkatnya kesibukan dan pertumbuhan penduduk di kota Jakarta. Kota Jakarta merupakan kota metropolitan dengan jumlah kendaraan dan polusi udara yang tinggi, sehingga permasalahan utama yang timbul adalah penurunan degradasi kualitas lingkungan akibat pencemaran udara. Selain kualitas udara yang buruk juga berdampak pada kualitas fisik dan psikis penduduk yaitu berdampak pada gangguan paru – paru dan chronic stress. Maka dibutuhkannya sebuah ruang antara yang menjadi penetralisir dengan tujuan menyeimbangkan pola pikir dan kesehatan jasmani bagi manusia. Hal tersebut direalisasikan dengan dibuatnya bangunan “Matraman Vertical Park”, dengan luas ± 5.000 m² yang memberikan wadah bagi manusia untuk “Stop” dan “Think”, serta memberikan reaksi positif terhadap lingkungan sekitar. Lokasi bangunan berada di perbatasan antara Jakarta Pusat dan Jakarta Timur yang terletak di persimpangan Jalan Salemba Raya dan Jalan Pramuka Raya. Matraman Vertical Park merupakan ruang publik dan sosial berintegrasi dengan botanical garden yang menjawab dan memperbaiki isu penuruan kualitas lingkungan di kota Jakarta. Matraman Vertical Park menggunakan konsep Third Place yang menyediakan ruang bagi manusia untuk bersosialisasi dan memberikan penghiburan yang berkontribusi positif terhadap lingkungan perkotaan. Di dalam bangunan ini terdapat program yang cenderung ditujukan untuk public dan perkembangan bagi manusia maupun lingkungan, dengan konsep morphosis environment pada tata ruang yang menghadirkan interaction space bagi pengunjung kepada lingkungan sekitar.

The urban underground pipe network plays a vital role in the city development, the construction of unreasonable urban pipe networks restricts the city development, even has a disastrous effect on the city. However, it is not desirable to overstate the investment of the urban underground pipe network excessively. It is an important subject of the city construction that how to establish reasonable urban pipe networks to meet service conditions of underground pipe networks. Because the construction of underground drainage pipe networks of most of the major cities in our country mainly comes from the 50s of last century and there are more pipe network system with the development of the city, it is the main content of our research that how to reform and construct them under the condition of existing underground pipe networks.

To resolve the problem that underground pipe network is large, complex, and difficult to manage, the management model based on ArcGIS was used. This paper aimed to transform the traditional data types of underground pipe network to a new type based on ArcGIS and to make statistical analysis and thematic maps output to the attribute datas for all underground pipes mainly including water supply network and drainage network. Through the analysis of pipe network visualization model implementation to build the spatial data model of three-dimensional pipe network, the automatic model from 2D to 3D would be achieved, then the new ways to realize the 3D visualization of urban underground pipe network would be provided. Taking the underground pipe network of a city as an example, the management system based on ArcGIS was built. The system running results show that the system could achieve the digital management of underground pipe network for the city and improve the management efficiency of the entire system.

The rapid development of the city and the environment resulting in the deterioration of the overall force, people began to face the city environment. If the city space environment of metaphor from the macro as a whole, so the sports building is the city's unit, a city, region and the whole city environment organic synthesis. The overall layout of sports buildings should echo the city space, the main features and figure should constitute the area and the surrounding environment, but also with other city environment unit coexistence, dialogue, promote each other, so as to fully reflect the city space environment integrity and vitality.

Hazard perception (HP) is an important aspect of driving performance and is associated with crash risk. In the current study, we investigate the effect of roadway environment (city vs. highway) and expertise on HP. HP was measured using HP clips that evaluated response lag (defined as the time from the participant’s response to the end of the clip) and fuzzy signal detection theory metrics of response criterion and sensitivity. Forty videos were used: 20 from highway environments and 20 from city environments. Forty-eight participants with a range of driving experience as assessed by the years since obtaining a license (less than 1 year to 24 years) completed the study. There were differences between city and highway environments in response lag and response bias; participants responded earlier to the hazards in the highway environment and exhibited a more liberal response bias. Driving experience was significantly correlated to response lag. When the video clips were categorized by environment, driving experience was only significantly correlated with performance for the city environment.

AbstractAt the present time, urban agriculture—that is, the growing of food crops in backyard gardens, unused city spaces and peripheral zones—is an economically viable alternative for many African migrants. Although previously ‘invisible’ to most developers and economists, urban farming is now recognised as playing a crucial subsistence role in the household economies of lower-income people living in major West African cities. But the practice does more than feed the urban poor. Using the example of Ziguinchor in Casamance, Senegal, it is argued that growing crops in peri-urban and intra-urban zones, on otherwise neglected or half-built-up land, also protects and enriches the city environment while increasing the primary productivity of the inhabitants. Directly, or in more subtle ways, the practice strengthens bonds of friendship, and promotes inter-ethnic co-operation while at the same time helping to maintain biological complexity in interesting and previously unexplored ways. City farming may provide a context through which the urban poor can relate to debates about biodiversity.

Urban planning concepts for mass housing construction were tested in the cities of Russia before the XXI century, the legislative framework changed, the centralized architectural activity lost its force. The diversification of the economy, the development of socio-cultural processes radically changed the approach to the formation of the city environment. The fulfillment of the requirements for the intensification and rationality of the use of territories without a comprehensive study of the city morphology changing often leads to the environment deformations. The purpose of the study is to identify the tendencies of the city morphology development under the influence of changes in ideas about the environmental quality. The city environment is understood as the unity of the natural and anthropogenic landscape, as well as the effective force – the citizens. In the study, the tasks were: to identify the most sustainable elements of the natural framework, constructed areas in a historical sequence; to determine the morphological periods of the Krasnoyarsk development, morphotops of the residential territories; to investigate the structure of the city fringe belts; to formulate the tendencies of the development of lower tier pf the residential housing and public spaces as the most susceptible to change under the influence of socio-cultural processes; to formulate the tendencies of the morphological development of Krasnoyarsk. To determine the boundaries of morphotops, calculate indicators CIS-tools with georeferenced data were used. To analyze the functional density of saturation of morphotopes with objects of small and medium-size business geoanalytical visualization of “functional flows” was performed. To assess pedestrian accessibility and visual connectivity, a spatial syntax method was used in the work. The main results of the calculated indicators were produced be the method of exploratory data analysis/ As a result of the study, the socio-cultural processes influencing the development of the morphology of the city were established; morphological period of the city development, morphotops of residential arears have been determined, changes have been made to the typology of public spaces, the concept of fringe belts has been confirmed, a new type of fixation line has been established, the pattern of development of lower tier of residential housing have been investigated. These results characterize he features of the transformation of the city environment and can be used for the purpose of architectural and urban design.
