This research has the purpose to develop a method to evaluate whether station’s area of influence has been formed, and verify formation of the area of influence through empirical analysis of all subway stations in Seoul. First, we created buffers of 100m intervals from 100m to 1000m, based on subway station exits, calculated the average land price of each buffer, and divided station areas of influence into 10 clusters using K-means clustering with the average land prices as values of observation. Subsequently, we have assumed a decreasing price curve from increasing distance from a nearby subway station, estimated a price curve and evaluated whether the area of influence actually exists using regression analysis of each cluster. The 10 area of influence clusters were largely divided into strong, weak, and no area of influence of subway station. The stations where the strong areas of influence are formed are mainly located in center, sub-centers, and local centers; stations where weak and no areas of influence are formed are mostly located in the adjacent areas of center or sub-centers or suburbs.

In the process of exploring sustainable development, major cities in China are expanding metro systems as a strategy to reduce the negative environmental and social consequences of fast-paced motorization. A metro station is not only a transportation node, but also a place where diverse activities can be performed. Therefore, the realization of the spatial potential for human interaction is the essence of the strategy for integrated development in metro station areas. For this paper, 10 well-developed metro stations in Central Shanghai were selected to investigate the correlation between accessibility and spatial performance in station areas. The spatial performance in station areas is significantly affected by metro configuration. However, both vehicle and pedestrian accessibility show weak influence on spatial performance. A synergistic model was then developed to provide quantitative support for transit-oriented development in metro station areas.

Continuous management of bicycle facilities is needed, as uses of bicycles are increased. In the previous studies, evaluation of bicycle facilities were performed mainly from the surveys to bicycle users and experts. This study aims to evaluate the facilities for bicycle uses by setting up the quantitative assessing measures for the purpose of contributing to balanced management of the facilities for bicycle uses. Based on the existing measures provided in the previous studies about conditions for bicycles users, the variables of the facilities that are available and quantifiable were derived, and the scales of the facilities were set up. For evaluation, the station influence areas in Songpa District were selected as test areas. The methods for analysis were, first, to carry out the 'bicycle roads-facilities' analysis, which was modified from quadrant method. Consequently, individual facilities and station areas were relatively examined. Second, by principal component analysis, bicycle facilities were analyzed in a general and integrated way. From that, the variables sharing common characteristics were grouped, similar types of stations influence areas were found out, and then the groups were ranked.

This study aims to identify the difference between the actual characteristics of urban station influence areas and the recognition of the importance of such characteristics in planning, by analyzing the importance of transit-oriented development (TOD) planning factors that influence the use of public transportation. In terms of the methodology for the assessment, this study gives in-depth discussions over the validity of assessment methods that utilize quantitative data and those that rely on qualitative surveys of experts. Based on such discussions, the study analyzes the importance of the actual characteristics of station influence areas (quantitative) and the characteristics in planning identified by experts (qualitative), thereby suggesting implications for the orientations for future development of station influence areas.

This study This study aims to identify sound developmental directions for transit-oriented development (TOD), which is a topic of interest in the field of urban development, and conducts an empirical analysis of station influence areas within Seoul according to the characteristics of transit types. The results suggest that there are differences among variables that influence demand for public transportation according to transit types. This means that it is necessary to identify improvement plans in developing public transport strategies for the capital region based on such differentiated influence factors and to build foundations to continue to increase demand for public transportation. Also, station influence areas should be developed into hubs by establishing appropriate bus-only lane networks as a supplementary means, rather than directly connecting subway stations with each other.

City of Incheon opened rapid transit(urban railroad line 1) in 1999 in order to relieve traffic congestion on major arterials. This research analyzed urban space changes of each station influenced area by examining the changes of residents, industrial employees, and floor area ratios before and after the open of Incheon urban railroad line 1. Analysis of variance was applied to change of station influence area. This research found out that the types of central business and agricultural station influence area had been changed significantly after the open of urban railroad. However, the residential, semi-residential, and suburban type of station influence area had not been changed after the open of urban railroad. Thus, it is necessary to provide diverse facilities for inducing residents and employees to the station influence area of residential and semi-residential. Furthermore, the suburban type of station influence area which is difficult to develop naturally by the law of Green Belt is needed to develop station influence area simultaneously with the construction of a station building.

Accurate demand estimating process in the construction of urban railway is very important, and precise validation is required. Existing model formula in the 4 phase model is limited in the estimation of the demand the administrative boundary-based zone system reflects no spatial railway demand characteristics around railway stations. The purpose of this study is improving the accuracy of urban rail demand estimation through segmentations of station influence areas and modal split characteristics within the areas. According to the case analysis, it is possible to set up the ststion influence area with a radius of 500m in the urban region and 1,000m in the suburban. And eastablishing proper segmentations of the ststion influence area shows more accurate results to the real demand of railway stations.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the daily living area of the elderly using the vast amount of travel route data collected through smart phones. In order to analyze the utilization status of the elderly into the visiting area and the living area, the subway station influence area was typed based on the number and ratio of the elderly visiting and the elderly living there. The characteristics of the elderly visiting area and the living area of the subway station area were derived by analyzing the walking route data for the three types of subway station influence areas where the elderly visit and live. First, we derive the range of visiting area and living area of the elderly near the subway station. Second, we derive the characteristic of moving distance which causes the linked walking of the elderly. Third, destination distribution and facility utilization are influenced by the subject of use, movement pattern, and facility awareness.

This research, which was started with a need for constant monitoring to find out urban societies and spacial effects by urban railway after the opening, was intended to empirically explore urban and social changes by the opening of Daejeon City metro line 1st which would greatly affect the spacial structure of the city. For this goal, we expected the effect of urban subway on the city with academic consideration and precedent study. Monitoring results of the subway station areas of Daejeon City metro line 1st showed the opening of urban railway had an influence on the flow of urban plan and urban space structure through population, land use, total-developing areas, and land price change. In other words, as urban railway opens the number of population and population activities centered on the subway station areas, and these movements led to the expansion of the commercial areas. Finally, they caused the average land prices to rise. Likewise, urban monitering is significantly useful comprehending the generally time-periodic changes of cities and even conceiving the present cities.

From 1990, Seoul Metropolitan Government has established an urban master plan for the efficient city management by introducing the central place structure with a multi-tiered hierarchy. In the plan, Seoul City uses the strategy of developing the station influence area around the urban railway, in order to form the central place structure, effectively. . Therefore, reviewing impacts of urban railway is the most fundamental study for understanding changes in the spatial structures of Seoul. In the study, we have analyzed the changes in the central place structure of Seoul City with the public land price changes in station influence area around the urban railway at each year of 2000, 2005, and 2010. As a result, we could easily recognize the changes in the hierarchical central place structure by analyzing the time-series changes of public land price in station influence area.
