ABSTRACT

This study aims to identify and evaluate the spatial distribution of Cultural Ecosystem Services (CES) benefits perceived by people in both urban and rural areas. A public participation GIS (PPGIS) approach was applied with local people who responded to an online survey and mapped their important places related to CES benefits in the Kokemäenjoki area. We explore the perceived ecosystem services of the community using different infrastructure types (green, grey, yellow and blue) based on the Corine Land Cover (CLC) classes. We identified spatial patterns of mapped important places using kernel dens ity estimation and related CES benefit associations with the infrastructures using chi-square residuals. We found that CES in urban areas are provided more often when there is more than one type of infrastructure (e.g., grey and green; grey and blue), but grey infrastructures are preferred in urban areas, while blue infrastructures produce more CES benefits in rural areas.

摘要

本研究旨在识别和评估城市和农村地区人们感知的文化生态系统服务 (CES) 收益的空间分布。公众参与 GIS (PPGIS) 方法被应用于响应在线调查的当地人，并绘制了他们在 Kokemäenjoki 地区与 CES 利益相关的重要地点。我们使用基于 Corine Land Cover (CLC) 类别的不同基础设施类型（绿色、灰色、黄色和蓝色）探索社区感知的生态系统服务。我们使用核密度估计和相关的 CES 利益关联与使用卡方残差的基础设施来确定映射的重要地点的空间模式。我们发现，当有不止一种类型的基础设施（例如，灰色和绿色；灰色和蓝色）时，在城市地区提供 CES 的频率更高，
