• Where is the location of the human fieldwork study?

  Bristol harbourside, SW England
• What are four key reasons for conducting this fieldwork study?

  • Evidence of regeneration
  • Previous (current) derelict?
  • Sensory (can see/smell/hear/feel)
  • Why 5 locations? *to compare levels of regeneration, * and see Social, Economic + Environmental impacts
• What are three risk assessment considerations for this fieldwork, and how can they be mitigated?

  • Trips/falls -> use crossings
  • Traffic -> no headphones
  • Getting lost -> stay in groups, stay visible
• What type of map uses colour to show land use?

  Choropleth map
• What is one advantage of using a choropleth map for data presentation?

  Easy to read and understand
• What is another advantage of using a choropleth map for data presentation?

  Can compare to old maps
• What is one disadvantage of using a choropleth map for data presentation?

  Hard to show multiple use's clearly
• What is the name of the method using located proportional circles to represent data?

  EQS
• With EQS what does a larger circle indicate?

  A higher score or nicer area
• With EQS what do smaller circles indicate?

  Harder to see differences
• What type of chart is used for pedestrian counts?

  Bar chart
• Why is a bar chart useful for pedestrian counts?

  Easy to read
• What data collection method involves gathering sensory information together?

  Sphere
• What types of evidence are used to assess regeneration, and what aspects of Bristol are they related to?

  • Social (new houses)
  • Economic (use of business -> low or high?)
  • Environmental (loss of green space?)
• What question helps determine the positive social, economic, and environmental impacts of regeneration in Bristol?


  How has regeneration had positive impacts?
• What is meant by the term "regeneration" in the context of urban areas?

  Changing and improving an area
• What are limitations to evaluating regeneration in Bristol?

  • Time - so data collection is rushed
  • Multiple sites of data to compare
  • Lots of historic data sources
  • HTT data on a range of dates/times + lo
• What type of impacts did regeneration have in Bristol?

  Positive social, economic, & environmental
• What are some challenges related to time during evaluation?

  • Time - data collection is rushed
• What are some data considerations during evaluation?

  • Multiple sites of data to compare
  • Lots of historic data sources
  • HTT data on a range of dates/times + locations
• What is a method to gauge opinion of locals during evaluation?

  Interviews or questionnaires
• What is Pedestrian Count, and what are some key features?

  Pedestrian Count: count people walking past

  • Time: 2/3 mins?
  • Easy to repeat
  • No equipment needed
  • May be walking too fast/not using?
  • Hard count
• What is Environmental Quality Survey (EQS), and what are some key features?

  Environmental Quality Survey (EQS):

  • Large area survey - give a score on a range of aspects
  • Increased score = nicer area.
  • Average score
  • Easy to analyse
  • Subjective (opinion)
  • Low number of opinions.
  • Why? to see if regeneration has made an area nice.
• What are Land Use maps, and what are some key features?

  Land Use maps:

  • Plotted type of building use
  • See locational patterns
  • Easy to collect
  • Why? to see patterns e.g if one area social or economic.
  • Only counted - ground floor.
  • Hard to get exact numbers or know building use.
