Analysis of environmental safety of County Parks as an urban landscape based on womankind viewpoint (on the Basis of CPTED); Case study: Saie Park, Iran

Environmental safety and citizen's perception of simulated natural environments towards utilization of urban landscapes and its applications are among the most significant standpoint of developed countries especially in scientific fields such as sociology, management and landscape design. Subjective and objective perception of safety refers to landscape structure and arrangements of its components. Certain criteria and standards of environmental safety should be developed so structure and arrangements of components could be figured out. In this regard, it could be pointed out to CPTED method which emphasizes on decreasing delinquencies by and through landscape design. Simply there are so many places and situations in which it is probable that men feel safe but women dont. Objective of the present study is to identify criteria and principals which emphasizes on details of women safety in society and various part of urban landscape that is essential needs and requirements which might be subjective yet have an effect on environmental efficiency. To achieve such goal in the present study number of individuals has been estimated and the environments have been rated based on the individual's concentration in each part. Considering such statistical data compared to data gathered by police division of park delinquencies, it has been recognized that absence of individuals is proportional to scale of delinquencies and misbehaviors. Subsequently women are asked to present their idea in a questionnaire based on CPTED principals on lack of safety in urban districts (especially in the case study park) and other places they are not willing to be. Finally it is concluded that in societies which have a deep tenets and cultural structures, CPTED method should have included detailed criteria of landscape design characteristics for women.
