This paper explores the application of a combination of urban analysis methods in order to gather data and explore the implications of abandonment in a city. Nowadays, in a period of economic recession, developments based on demolitions and reconstructions, are not always suitable. The direction of this paper includes the idea of existing areas, buildings and their reuse as a main and primary starting point of the built environment sustainability. The research uses Aberdeen, Scotland, as a case study. Within the research, the concept of urban abandonment is explored across three subcategories, which enable the clarification of differences between various urban conditions and features.

The aim of the paper is to demonstrate that a certain combination of qualitative methods can enable a detailed exploration of the current urban situation. This detailed information enabled to gather more empirical quantitative data based on the consideration raised from the analysis. The work is original in that it seeks to combine theories of abandonment with the spatial assessment of urban environments, and thus holds the potential to carry significance within urban design and planning practice.

本文探讨了结合城市分析方法的应用，以收集数据并探讨城市废弃的含义。如今，在经济衰退时期，基于拆除和重建的发展并不总是合适的。本文的方向包括将现有区域，建筑物及其复用作为建筑环境可持续性的主要和主要出发点。该研究以苏格兰阿伯丁为案例研究。在这项研究中，对城市遗弃的概念进行了三个子类别的探讨，这使人们能够弄清各种城市状况和特征之间的差异。

本文的目的是证明定性方法的某种组合可以实现对当前城市状况的详细探索。这些详细信息可以根据分析得出的考虑因素收集更多经验性的定量数据。这项工作的原始之处在于它试图将放弃理论与城市环境的空间评估相结合，从而具有在城市设计和规划实践中发挥重要作用的潜力。
