Investigation of urban regeneration projects in uşak through geographical information system (GİS)

The most recent legal basis of the urban transformation in our country is depended to the Law No. 6306(which is about the Transformation of the Areas at Disaster Risk). In this study, examined parcel-based conversions is also being debated within Law No. 6306. As the study area, the central neighborhoods of Uşak were taken into consideration and Ünalan Neighborhood where intensive transformations were made was studied. In the neighborhood which is in an important position in the city center, it was observed that the transformations made by the ''build first-than demolish method'' continued rapidly. After that the current situation and the physical situations that may have been seen in the future were compared. In the beginning of this study, a database which is containing the attribute data(district,neighbourhood,street/road,door number,national adress database code(uavt), structure ID etc.) and geographical data(X,Y,Z) of the parcel-based risky structures that have been transformed in Uşak has been created. Satellite photographs, zoning plans, current infrastructure projects (drinking water, sewage lines) of Uşak city were obtained. The obtanied data has been combined in MAPINFO program, which is a GIS based software and query (SQL), analysis, reporting and mapping studies have been performed. At the end of the study, it was determined that 22% of the transformation was made by Ünalan Neighborhood. Zoning status of the region, increase in number of floors and population density rates have been determined. Parking and health areas planned according to the proximity function have been found to be sufficient. According to the Nearest analysis, it was found out that the planned parking and health areas are sufficient but children playgrounds, educational areas and social cultural areas are needed with the appropriate analysis methods of GIS. As a result of the increasing coefficient situation in Ünalan neighborhood, it is observed that the population increasing on a point basis is concentrated in the south of Mimar Sinan Street. When the population density effect is considered and the current coefficient status and the number of floors envisaged in the development plan are compared, a 16% population increase is observed in the neighborhood. The study plays an active role in revealing the future problems of the society. The necessary legal arrangements to ensure the overall increase should be made in partnership with the public and the state.
