| Future Plan |
We continue to study urban and housing related issues by applying spatial analytic methods. Spatial analysis involves features, such as spatial interrelationship and shape factors, which are specific to spatial phenomena. Models explicitly incorporating such features should be developed. Moreover, Urban and housing issues are closely related not only to engineering field, but also legal, economic, psychological, and social studies. We would like to conduct collaborative research in these fields.

| Messages to Students |
| The environment is not only the object of our research, but also the instructional materials which we can learn a great deal from. Such a modest attitude is important for researchers in our field. |
