Abstract

Urbanization is inevitable in developed countries. This study investigated the design of metropolitan parks, which are essential for sustainable cities. The developed model examined the suitability of parks in Taichung City, Taiwan, and explored the three aspects of ecological, economic, and social indicators for park design using De Novo planning tools and the Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory-based Analytic Network Process. Because the De Novo programming method can redesign budget restrictions, this method can help managers arrange budget programming and reduce the impact of excessive investment on resource utilization in specific projects. After obtaining each factor’s price, the De Novo planning approach can reduce economic and ecological resource input and improve benefits relative to existing resource utilization methods. When assuming a fixed investment of resources, the De Novo planning method moves resources from the economic and ecological aspects of leisure and recreation, thus increasing the total benefit of metropolitan parks. Multicriteria decision-making and multi-objective planning methods can provide an effective solution for evaluating metropolitan parks.

Highlights

  • As an economy develops, the residents of the country tend to migrate into cities

  • The construction of metropolitan parks enables the government to plan and manage urban green space to protect the biological resources of the area, provide people with leisure and recreational places, improve the quality of life of residents, increase the economic value of neighborhoods close to metropolitan parks, and encourage environmental protection through ecotourism

Summary

Introduction

The residents of the country tend to migrate into cities. For developed countries, urbanization is inevitable. In increasingly crowded urban areas, proper planning of urban green spaces will have a significant effect on the quality of life of citizens. Urban green space has a significant effect on the physiology, society, and environment of residents [4], and is a key factor affecting residents’ satisfaction [5,6]. The construction of metropolitan parks enables the government to plan and manage urban green space to protect the biological resources of the area, provide people with leisure and recreational places, improve the quality of life of residents, increase the economic value of neighborhoods close to metropolitan parks, and encourage environmental protection through ecotourism. Mathematics 2020, 8, 1304 residents’ quality of life (e.g., average green space allocated for residents, parks, and recreation areas) [7]. An evaluation model for a metropolitan park based on ecological, economic, and social factors was established to examine the suitability of parks in Taichung City, Taiwan
