Throughout history, environmental, economic, social and cultural values have affected the formation and development of cities. The industrial revolution brought about a rapid change in the cities and caused the values. The physical changes experienced by the cities caused rapid destruction of the environment and natural resources, thus damaging the ecological structures of the cities. These reasons have led people to search for sustainable environment and nature. In order to prevent this negative situation from getting worse, to use resources sustainably, to ensure the comfort of living spaces, new urban forms have emerged in order not to threaten the existence of nature. Eco-cities, as a self-sufficient city model that encourages the rational and sustainable use of resources, are one of these urban forms. Ecocity concept emerged with this in mind. This study was carried out in Bartin City, which has urban, rural and coastal areas and important resources. In the study, the analyzes of the natural and cultural potential that affect the ecocity potential of the city were made using geographic information system techniques. ArcGIS 10.8 software was used for this purpose. The data were stored in the ArcGIS 10.8 and thematic maps were created. Then, by overlapping the maps, the eligibility criteria were questioned. The potentials of Bartin city, which are suitable for being an ecocity, have been revealed. Within the scope of sustainability, the city's economic, social, cultural achievements and an ecocity model proposal has been presented.

Ekokent Potansiyeline Erişim-Bartın/Türkiye Örneği

Öz

Tarih boyunca çevresel, ekonomik, sosyal ve kültürel değerler kentlerin oluşum ve gelişimini etkilemiştir. 19. yüzyılda yaşanan sanayi devrimi, kentlerde hızlı bir dönüşüm meydana getirmiş ve kenti oluşturan bu değerlerin de değişimine neden olmuştur. Kentlerin fiziksel anlamda yaşadığı değişimler çevrenin ve doğal kaynakların hızla tahrip olmasına neden olarak kentlerin ekolojik yapılarına zarar vermiştir. Bu sebepler insanları sürdürülebilir çevre ve doğa arayışlarına sürüklemiştir. Ekokentler bu negatif etkilerin daha kötüye gitmesini önlemek, kaynakları sürdürülebilir kullanmak, daha yaşanabilir çevre oluşturmak düşüncesiyle ortaya çıkmıştır. Ekokent kendi kendine yetebilen bir kent modelidir. Bu model kaynakların rasyonel ve sürdürülebilir kullanımını teşvik eder. Bu çalışma kentsel, kırsal ve kıyı, alanları ile önemli kaynaklara sahip Bartın Kenti’nde yapılmıştır. Bartın kentinin sahip olduğu ve ekokent olabilmeye uygun potansiyelleri coğrafi bilgi sistemleri aracılığı ile analiz edilmiştir. ArcGIS 10.8 yazılımı verilerin depolanması, analiz ve tematik haritaların yapılması amacıyla kullanılmıştır. Haritaların üst üste çakıştırılması ve sorgulanmasıyla uygunluk haritaları oluşturulmuştur. Kentin ekokent ölçütlerinde vurgulanan parametrelere ne kadar uygunluk gösterdiği bu şekilde saptanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucu Bartın kentinin ekokent olmak için yeterli potansiyelde olduğunu göstermiştir. Çalışma sonucunda sürdürülebilirlik kapsamında Bartın kentinin ekonomik, sosyal, kültürel kazanımları ile geleceğe yönelik ekokent model önerisi sunulmuştur.
