Abstract The city has rapidly grown during the process of modern urbanization and this brought about positive effects to the city such as quantitative expansion of the city and the improvement of the quality of life. However, the radical development of the city also brought about other problems such as environmental problems and the conservation and preservation of nature as well as the local culture. In order to solve these problems and to make city a better place to live, lots of research concerning urban renaissance are under progress. The aim of this study is to develop a system supporting the self-revival of the residents by introducing the concept of interactive tool in the Information Age for resident's participation. Considering the characteristics of the urban renaissance area and local residents, this is a tool which the public can easily use. This system carries the functions of spatial visualization of the urban renaissance area, decision making of the residents for the revival of the local area by actively participating in the regional planning, and convergence of the resident's opinions. This system holds various significance as an easily accessible urban planning tool with high utilization unlike the existing spatial visualization systems, an information sharing tool that practices the cultural paradigm, a system for supporting active participation in the urban renaissance and helping decision making of the residents, and a voluntary tool for the users to create the contents that they want themselves.
