ENVIROENMTAL QUALITYA SSESSMENT ; NAME AND DESCRIPTION OF DATA PRESENTATION METHOD .

A

radar graph ; we divided the qua categories into 4 graphs , then plotted the 1-5 scale on each spoke , differnt colours for each site and joined the dots up .
-The smaller the shape , lower the EQA score .
-Bigger the shpe , higher thre EQUA SOCPRE

data pesentation method for pedestrain count

A

-We did proportioal ares one towrds the site and one awy . The width of the area describes the number of people .
-On mys clae , 1 person = 0.5 .
-I also split mya rrow into sections and colour coded each section absed on each age group .

-EQA - bipolargraph .
-Pedestrian count - Isoline Map , Choloropleth map .
-Noise survey - pictogram ; isoline map

21
Q

What other data could I present and how could I present it

A

-Sustainiaility score -ar graph
-DField sketch - neat ersion +annotated .
-Questionnaire - pie chart , class average by collecting all scores .

22
Q

What do my results show ? EQA
-Highest 69/85
Lowest westfield shopping center - 45/85
Average 58.25/85

A

EXPLANATION OF RESULTS ;

LINK- the area that was the NOSIEST had the highest pedestrian count (outside Westield shopping center . ANOMALY - however , it dosen’t link with with the EQUA as outside westfield had the lowest score .

42
Q

What is my overal conclusion

A

-I moslty agree iwth the hypothesis a lot of my daa supports the positive effect of Stratford regeneration .
-For example , my average EQUA , score was around68 % , alluding to a highl positive effect , which is reflected in the more maintianed areas like Westfield shoppign enter and Easst Village .

-Howver , my lwoest EQUA score was outside westfield , sugeditng tht the regenrayion didn’t encedssarilybenefit all of stratord enviornemtnll , this is because of bad trfic , builidngs and lc of green space .

-Despite this , there was a high pedestrain count outside westfield (112) , showing how popular thea rea is , with the highest decibel reading at(70DB) , which cn be interpetes as busya nd lots of tranpsort aailble .

43
Q

EVALUATION OF FIELDWORK - what additional data would help with my enquiry ?

A

-COmparing old and new mpas .
-Annotated ifeld sketch .
-Interview ith someone part of the legacy comitte .
-QUALTY OF life SURVEY .

44
Q

EVALUATION OF FIELDWORK - can you suggest further lines of enquiry ?

A

-How has the Olympcis left behind a good legacy ?
-Is ther enough employment /houses for locals ?
-Is this regenrtion benefitting older areas of Stratford ?
