| Summary: | Urbanization leads to positive and negative impacts on the society. While it
accelerates economic growth, it also brings negative impact to the
environment and people‘s health. The growth of urbanization is
unavoidable; therefore, sustainability needs to be maintained to preserve the
liveability of urban dwellers. The intention of this study is to review the use
of climatic information in planning future developments in the local land use
map. The studies of content and interview method were done in order to
understand the real situation of this environmental mitigation. In further, the
identification of the gaps of e study. The findings of this study were used to
propose the climate indicators for the existing land use map. Future studies
may focus on conducting preliminary experiments to apply the urban
climatic map in the local context. |
