104 Lecture Notes – Week 10
Key Uses of Data –
• Look into how many people are in these places
• How expensive it is when comparing different areas from industrial and office uses to housing
• Natural Heritage - Places have areas of what type of plant they want to grow more of, or what
tpe of fish oure alloed to hae, et.
• Water - How fast is water going, what is the rate, keep invasive species separate from the warm
and cold water
Sources of Data –
• Municipalities constantly look at the value of the construction
Quality, Comparability and Availability
• Surveys are more current than census
Forecasting -
• Data a ol get ou so far, ou hae to look at our assuptios thats the oe that atters
Jane Law – Guest Lecture
You shape the community – OPPI – building healthy communities, sustainable communities
• Planning for healthy communities
• Number of call to action amongst children in active transportation
• Creating age friendly communities
The community shape you – depends on how thoughtful you are and if you have the techniques to do so
like can you provide evidence from existing data.
• You are where you live, like the life expectancy in that community
• For example, living near junk food restaurants compared to restaurants that serve healthy food
Spatial analysis – is about mapping, analyzing data and collecting data, providing a lot of hidden, useful
information. Like high income, low income, accessibility,
Mapping the data helps analyze the data, and give evidence, for example, why are some areas have
higher rates of asthma than other areas – which can be due to pollution contributed by high volumes of
traffic
For ex// Planners must plan away from high volumes of traffic and such, to be away from disease related
to the environment
These results were taken away from data that was analyzed
The ouit shape ou… our fail… future geeratios
Emphasis on how you shape the community and the community shape you – and planners must focus
on building healthy communities since it is our responsibility to do so
