Proposal
Project Motivation
Project Motivation
Singapore is a land scarce island with a total area of 721.5 square kilometres that accommodates to approximately 5.8 million people. This makes planning for land use in Singapore a crucial process that not only requires meticulous planning but a need to follow a set of standard procedures. Using systems such as Geospatial technology can aid this urban planning process to be more efficient.
Project Objective
Project Objective
As mentioned above, a set of standard procedures should be followed. Before making any recommendations to the current land use of Serangoon, its essential for us to compare the changes. On top of this, we will need to take into consideration several factors, from the residents needs to current facilities in the area itself, before we are able to begin making changes to the area. Therefore, our project aims to be a mini model of the correct method of carrying out urban planning.
In this project, we will be analysing the following areas:
- Transportation
- Child-care Centres
- Eldercare Centres
We will also be studying 3 main groups of population:
- The elderly (aged 65 and above)
- The young (aged 0-4)
- The economic active (aged 25-64)
