摘要
快速和不受控制的城市化以及城市土地管理是刚果民主共和国土地规划的主要制约因素。在刚果民主共和国东部Nkafu市的283个随机家庭中进行了家庭数据收集和分析,以评估当地社区对快速城市化的看法及其对土地政策和建筑景观管理的影响。使用XLStat version 2019对社会人口特征、快速城市化和环境管理数据进行收集和分析。此外,利用arcmap10.8软件生成研究区位置图、土地利用和覆被变化图。结果表明,土地所有者占主导地位,他们用当地获得的不可持续的建筑材料(如木板)建造简单的房屋。此外,土地管理不受当地社区的赞赏,由于缺乏财政资源而导致的无政府主义建设产生了越来越多的城市垃圾,而这些垃圾管理不善。研究建议,城市道路更新,建筑符合城市规划和建筑法规,改善研究区域的饮用水供应和卫生服务的可用性。使用地理信息系统(GIS),将提供有关研究地区土地规划的空间信息。
Rapid Urbanization and Environment Management in Nkafu Municipality, Eastern DR Congo
Rapid and uncontrolled urbanization as well as urban land management are major constraints to land planning in the Democratic Republic of Congo. A household data collection and analysis was carried out in 283 random households in the Nkafu municipality, eastern DR Congo, to assess the local community’s perception of rapid urbanization and its impact on land policy and management of the built landscape. Data of socio-demographics characteristics, rapid urbanization, and environment management data were collected and analyzed using XLStat version 2019. In addition, the study area location map, land use and cover change maps were generated using ArcMap 10.8. Results indicate that landowners are dominant and, build simple houses with unsustainable building materials (i.e. wooden plank) obtained locally. In addition, land management is not appreciated by local communities, due to anarchic construction due to lack of financial resources generating thus an increasing amount of urban waste, which is poorly managed. The study suggests, urban roads renew, building in conformity with urban planning and building regulations, potable water supply and health services availability to improve the study area. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) use, would provide spatial information on land planning in the study area.
