Geotecnologias nos estudos sobre brownfields : identificação de brownfields em imagens de alta resolução espacial e análise da dinâmica de refuncionalização de antigas áreas fabris em São Paulo / Geotechnologies in the studies about brownfields: brownfields identification in high resolution spatial imagery and redevelopment dynamic analysis of old industries in Sao PauloAmanda Ramalho Vasques 10 November 2009 (has links)
Dentre os processos urbanos passíveis de serem analisados pelos novos sensores de alta resolução espacial está a refuncionalização de antigas áreas industriais, atualmente desativadas. Os edifícios e terrenos industriais que tiveram um uso ativo, mas que foram fechados, abandonados, e estão ociosos, são chamados de brownfields. Nos últimos anos, alguns destes locais tem sido refuncionalizados, alterando suas formas, estruturas e funções, incorporando, portanto, novos usos. Neste trabalho são analisadas primeiramente as questões teóricas acerca dos brownfields sua conceituação, formação, refuncionalização, e impactos gerados. Posteriormente, são apresentadas as metodologias de aplicação das geotecnologias nos estudos sobre brownfields e a discussão de suas potencialidades. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi estudar a utilização do sensoriamento remoto e dos sistemas de informação geográfica (SIG) para identificar áreas de potenciais brownfields e analisar o processo de refuncionalização de antigos espaços fabris dos bairros do Brás, Mooca e Belém, em São Paulo. Neste contexto, as aerofotos e as imagens Quickbird integradas em ambiente SIG mostraram serem de grande auxílio para a identificação de brownfields, bem como para a análise do processo de refuncionalização, que foi atualizado e corroborado com os trabalhos de campo nos bairros citados. A acurácia da classificação supervisionada do uso do solo da imagem Quickbird no software TNTmips, apresentou Kappa de 86.29% para o bairro do Brás, 89.41% para a Mooca e 89.25% para o Belém; e a acurácia global apresentou 88.53% para o Brás, 91.85% para a Mooca e 90.25% para o Belém resultados considerados excelentes. Este trabalho, portanto, contribui em apresentar novas possibilidades de estudos sobre brownfields, valendo-se da potencialidade das geotecnologias e das imagens de alta resolução espacial para análise intra-urbana. Além disso, as questões analisadas nesta pesquisa apontam caminhos teóricos e metodológicos para a melhor compreensão destas áreas e para a busca por intervenções mais adequadas visando solucionar problemas urbanos. / Among the urban processes susceptible to be analyzed through the new high resolution spatial sensors, is the redevelopment of old industrial areas, presently deactivated. The building and industrial terrains that had and active use, but that were shutdown, abandoned, and are idle, are called brownfields. In the last years, some of these places have been redeveloped, changing its shapes, structures and functions, incorporating, this way, new uses. On this paper are analyzed, primarily, the theoretical issues about the brownfields - its conception, formation, redevelopment, and generated impacts. Subsequently, are presented the geotechnologies methodologies application on the brownfields studies and the discussion of its potentialities. The objective of this research was to study the use of remote sensing and the Geographic Information System (GIS) to identify potential brownfields areas and analyse the redevelopment process of old industrial spaces in the districts of Brás, Mooca and Belém, in the city of São Paulo. In this context, the aerial photos and Quickbird images, integrated in a GIS environment, showed to be of great aid in the brownfields identification, as well as to the redevelopment analysis process, that was updated and supported with field work in the quoted districts. The supervised classification accuracy of the land use in the Quickbird image over the Software TNTmips, shows Kappa of 86.29% to the Brás district, 89.41% to Mooca and 89.25% to Belém; and the overall accuracy presented 88.53% to Brás, 91.85% to Mooca and 90.25% to Belém - results considered excellent. So, this paper contributes with the presentation of new study possibilities over brownfields, taking advantage of the geotechnologies and high resolution spatial imagery potentialities to the intra-urban analysis. Beside this, the analyzes issues on this research indicate theoretical and methodological ways to a better comprehension of these areas and to the quest for more adequate interventions, seeking to solve urban problems.

Posouzení jednotlivých navržených možností revitalizace plochy brownfieldu / Assessment of particular proposed possibilities of brownfield locality restorarionKŘTĚNSKÁ, Dagmar January 2018 (has links)
The thesis "The assessment of particular proposed possibilities to revitalize a selected brownfield site" is made of two parts. The first one is theoretical and defines the term brownfield and other linked terms, the division and possibilities of revitalization. The second part is practical. It specifies the selected location and deals with the history of the property and its brownfield. It works out the consecutive possible revitalization of the area. An important part of the thesis makes a comparison with other chosen brownfield sites - Chýnov and Žirovnice breweries.

New Urbanism and Brownfields Redevelopment: Complications and Public Health Benefits of Brownfield Reuse as a Community GardenCampbell, Julia N. M. 11 May 2012 (has links)
Brownfields have an important impact on health. They can influence physical health by increasing risk for health hazards such as the potential for injury hazards, disease transmission, or exposure to chemicals. They can also influence social health determinants like neighborhood level social capital or behavioral risk factors. Reusing brownfields for community gardens reduces environmental hazards and associated health hazards. It further promotes public health, and sustainable quality environment. Community gardens increase nutrition access, especially for many in low income populations, and community aesthetic. They also strengthen social cohesion and create recreational or therapeutic opportunities for a community, becoming part of the urban green space network. Special care must be taken to protect public health when reusing a brownfield for a community garden, like sampling for chemicals, cleaning up soil, and using protective garden designs. The overall benefit to the community is worth the initial investment required.

Examination of Housing Price Impacts on Residential Properties Before and After Superfund Remediation Using Spatial Hedonic ModelingMhatre, Pratik Chandrashekhar 2009 August 1900 (has links)
Although recent brownfields redevelopment research using theories of real estate
valuation and neighborhood change have indicated negative effects on surrounding
residential housing, little evidence exists to show price impacts and sociodemographic
change after remediation. This study examines the extent and size of the economic
impact of Superfund sites on surrounding single-family residential properties before and
after remediation in Miami-Dade County and examines trends for contemporaneous
sociodemographic changes. The study combines the economic impact from changes in
environmental quality with contemporaneous sociodemographic changes within the
purview of environmental and social justice. This study uses spatial hedonic price
modeling on a comprehensive dataset of property-level data, with corresponding sales
prices of housing transactions while controlling for other structural, neighborhood, and
submarkets characteristics for assessing economic impact.
Findings revealed that housing sales prices for single-family residential
properties significantly increases as distance to the nearest contaminated Superfund increases. Following remediation, this negative impact declined and housing values
increased significantly in neighborhoods with remedied Superfund sites albeit more so in
low housing submarkets than premium submarkets. Spatial hedonic models
outperformed traditional OLS models in presenting unbiased efficient parameter
estimates, correcting for spatial dependence. Although no evidence for gentrification
was observed, there existed significant differences between certain sociodemographic
characteristics of neighborhoods around contaminated Superfund sites and those of
properties located elsewhere leading to concerns of environmental and social justice.
Findings suggest that low-income minority populations are more likely to be living in
neighborhoods around contaminated Superfund sites and experience a greater negative
effect on housing sales prices; these sites are also less likely to be remedied as compared
to sites located elsewhere.
The findings highlight not only the revealed preferences of homeowners with
respect to environmental disamenities, but also help inform policymakers and
researchers of the impact of brownfields redevelopment on economic and
sociodemographic characteristics of a growing urban region with evolving cultural and
social diversity. Incorporating influences of housing submarkets, neighborhood
amenities, and spatial dependence help provide a holistic and comprehensive model for
examining environmental disamenities and provide a better understanding for
neighborhood change.

Brownfields revitalization and affordable housing : an evaluation of inclusionary models of brownfield redevelopment in Oakland, CaliforniaViolet, Carla Marie 25 November 2013 (has links)
Brownfield redevelopment is called upon to remedy damaged ecological, economic, and social conditions due to contamination from prior land use(s). It can be utilized as a means for revitalizing low-income neighborhoods and communities of color that have suffered from years of economic disinvestment and a polluted environment. Critics of brownfield redevelopment in low-income neighborhoods argue that this form of revitalization can backfire when property values and rental prices rise and existing residents are pushed out. The City of Oakland has demonstrated a form of inclusionary brownfield redevelopment that incorporates housing that is affordable to existing residents in the area and thus avoiding the form of exclusionary housing witnessed in other cases of brownfield redevelopment in central cities. This report builds on the hypothesis that inclusionary brownfield redevelopments in Oakland can serve as a model approach for other cities in preventing displacement of lower income, residents of color through gentrification. / text

The role of collaborative planning in contaminated site redevelopment and plan implementationMarsh, Eric Lane 23 January 2012 (has links)
The following dissertation examines the role of collaborative planning in the redevelopment of National Priorities List Superfund sites and the implementation of Superfund site redevelopment plans. To examine the effect of collaborative planning, two models were constructed: one to predict Superfund site redevelopment and one to predict implementation of Superfund site redevelopment plans. Two test the two models, data was collected primarily from a survey of federal cleanup managers conducted between August 2008 and April 2009. Variables were then constructed and tested using bivariate and multivariate regression analysis. Results from the statistical analysis suggest that use of collaborative planning is positively and significantly associated with Superfund site redevelopment. Collaborative planning’s effect on Superfund site redevelopment plan implementation was inconclusive. To further explore the role of collaborative planning on Superfund site redevelopment and plan implementation, four case studies were developed that describe redevelopment planning at four Superfund sites. Overall, results suggest that collaborative planning is an important tool for the facilitation of Superfund site redevelopment. The effect of collaborative planning on plan implementation is somewhat ambiguous. Additional research is necessary, however, to draw firmer conclusions regarding both phenomena. / text
