Identification and Spatial Mapping of Locality of Streetscapes in Shanghai Hengfu Historic and Cultural Preservation Area by Yuhan SHAO, Sinan YIN, Dongbo MA, Yuting YIN

“…Taking Shanghai Hengfu Historic and Cultural Preservation Area (hereinafter referred to as the “Area”) as an example, the research adopts the semantic segmentation method and an AI-based evaluation model to analyze the locality of the Area, with the specific process being visualized using the Geographic Information System (GIS). The current spatial expression of streetscape locality characteristics in the Area is then discussed considering factors such as land use on both sides of a street, architectural styles, and traffic hierarchies.ResultsResults suggest that in the aspect of physical locality, the indicators of enclosing degree, green visibility and sky visibility are consistent in spatial distribution. …”
