A Study on the intensity of development in highland resort area

The purpose of the study is to know the density of the districts in high land resort area, and to consider the reguration of density in that area The following results were obtained. We developed new parameters of density to show the degree of amenity for forest and pastoral resort life, and measured and estimated in case of small and large districts in Takane Town, the southem piedmont of Mt. Yatugatake. The gross building cover-ages were very very low (under 3%). The gross coverages of forest and wildgrass were high (over 50%). The gross coverages of forest, wildgrass and farm were very high (over 80%). If the density of the area now is good for resort life, the value of reguration of the net building coverage have to be under 8 percent to keep the density now.
