| Abstract |
Recently, the traffic congestion problem is intensifying in cities due to the high population density and the increase of vehicles. As a
solution to alleviate traffic congestion, the concept of UAM was introduced as a new means of transportation. UAM has a big difference
from means of existing transportation in that it uses airspace. The introduction of UAM will significantly shorten the travel time between
regions, and thus will have a great influence on the urban spatial structure. The purpose of this study is to predict and analyze changes in
the urban spatial structure of the metropolitan area following the introduction of UAM, focusing on the distribution of housing prices. The
research method analyzes the influence of variables on the current housing price through the hedonic price model. And it is to use this to
predict changes in the distribution of housing prices, assuming the introduction of UAM. The analysis results are as follows. First, the gap in
housing prices has decreased. Second, the quality of housing improved. Third, the urban spatial structure was formed in a more balanced
manner. The results of this study suggest that the gap in housing prices between regions in the metropolitan area can be alleviated through
the introduction of UAM. In the future, it can be used for follow-up research to understand the impact of UAM introduction on urban
spatial structure. |
