Сalculated parameters for the functional zoning of green space in the central part of Reutov

Abstract

Introduction. The article devoted to the relevant problem of optimizing the natural framework of the city on the basis of rational use of the territory of the settlement as a public green area. The approach, based on the modern tendencies of urbanization, ecological utility, social benefits and rational use of territories. One of the important elements of the optimization of the ecological environment is the greening of the city space. At present, maintaining the balance of urbanized areas is a priority because with the growth and development of cities, the environment is becoming more and more aggressive. Also, with the increase in the number of residents, the recreational load increases, and due to the high concentration of emissions from motor vehicles and industrial enterprises, the state of urban natural systems is changing, which leads to a deterioration in the quality of life of the population. The system of green spaces of a modern city is being formed to improve the environment, enrich the appearance of the city, create conditions for mass recreation of the population in the natural environment. For the formation of the ecological situation in the city, along with cardinal measures, it is necessary to preserve and develop natural massifs and landscaping of the city territory. The article analyzes the relevant planning opportunities and constraints for urban transformation of the city, and also selects the optimal strategy for spatial development of the reorganization of the natural framework.Materials and methods. The collected attributive information, legal documents and cartographic materials are used in the work. The calculation of potential visitors was carried out on the basis of the normative value for recreational load, and the calculation of visitors to the natural-anthropogenic territorial complex (hereafter — NATC) was carried out by means of field observation. The observation results were processed using the Microsoft Office Excel software, followed by modelling of the project proposal for the use of the Reutov green space in the Qgis software package.Results. On the basis of the conducted research, the excess of the normative value of recreational load of the NATC “Apple Orchard” in Reutov was identified and a functional zoning project, including the design of three functional zones, was proposed.Conclusions. The increased rate of population influx and environmental pollution is forcing a reorganization of the green cores of cities.
