Green Space Conservation Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that approaches the conservation and restoration of green spaces such as satoyama woodlands from the standpoint of design.
AboutAbout the lab
Conservation design that serves the relationship between people and nature
Professor Kazuo Asahiro's lab on green space conservation studies the conservation and restoration of green space environments in suburban areas and in farming and mountain village areas.
Through people's conservation and management, green space environments support functions such as biodiversity, amenity, scenic beauty, production of agricultural and forestry products, and disaster prevention.
Working with citizens, government, and experts, the lab carries out research, education, policy recommendations, and practice, with the research goal of implementing conservation design (planning and design) in society.
Its higher-level goal is to train people who can feel the beauty of the environment and communicate it.
Key terms
- Point cloud data
- Survey data obtained as a collection of points that represent 3D positions. This lab uses it to survey and analyze satoyama woodlands.

The lab studies the conservation and restoration of green space environments in suburban areas and in farming and mountain village areas, which have been nurtured within the relationship between people and nature. It aims to face social issues, analyze historical and natural contexts to clarify the mechanisms of conservation, and implement conservation design in society.
Surveying Satoyama Woodlands with Point Cloud Data
The lab studies satoyama woodlands and green spaces at cultural properties using 3D point cloud data surveyed by UAV. It aims to turn the results into material that supports the planning and management of green spaces.
*Illustrative imageGreen Space Management in Urban Publicly Accessible Open Spaces
In urban green spaces such as publicly accessible open spaces, the lab investigates issues in planning and management systems concerning how to secure the quality and quantity of green space. In publicly accessible open spaces in Fukuoka City, it also surveys the management and growth of camphor trees and zelkova trees.
*Illustrative imageFarmland Recovery after Disasters and Agricultural Volunteers
The lab works on systematizing "agricultural volunteer" activities that promote the recovery and reconstruction of disaster-affected agriculture and farming villages. It studies how farmland can be restored through mutual aid.
