基本公共设施便利性角度低碳城市空间结构方法探究 　　Abstract: This study proposed a methodology for assessing the accessibility of Public Facilities on Low-carbon urban form and conducted discussion on how to improve the accessibility in Kumamoto city as case study. Three steps had been conducted in this research. First, GIS tools (SANET) were applied to take the spatial analysis of public service facilities in Kumamoto city. Second, implement a method to calculate the accessibility of public service facilities. Third, a public service facility layout planning was proposed and accessibility improvement was evaluated.

Introduction A large amount of green house gases (GHGs) have been exhausting with the rapid development of urbanization and human activity, and the reduction of environmental load on energy consumption of daily transportation has been caused extensive concern. A Low-Carbon Society (LCS) [1] is a society which has a minimal output of GHGs emissions into the biosphere, but specifically refers to the CO2. As a major component of GHGs emissions, Man-made CO2 contributes significantly to the imminent environmental challenges. Although the city has been considered to be major contributors to the global GHGs emissions, they also form a one of component of the solution. TAKAHASHI M. (2005)[2] indicated that it was necessary to formulate and investigate a mid/long-term action projects on municipal level, such as the urban morphology, traffic system, land use change, etc. to achieve a low-carbon society. Some of the frequently proposed strategies such as more efficient use of fuel, improvement of public transportation, education of citizens, and implementation of ?car free day? were put forward in European and American areas. In Japan, four types of representative strategies were approached for realization a low-carbon society: the construction of institutional social s
