Analysis of Urban Modalities Based on Modal Factors (original) (raw)

2011, Journal of Architecture and Planning (Transactions of AIJ)

In Part 1, we described and visualized urban modalities based on walkthrough experiments. Now, it's necessary to analyze the various data. Especially in this paper, we focus on "modal factors", which are extracted based on the data which subjects of experiments described while walking through the routes. The results are as follows. 1) Possibility of various statistical analyses shows that methods of describing the urban modalities are appropriate. 2) We found much knowledge about how we grasp urban modalities: for example, 5 indexes to represent modal factors, hierarchies among them, how to categorize them, and "figure and ground" in modality.
