The study of land use change and urban morphology requires a multi-layered approach. Case studies are needed to gain an understanding of the local factors that are driving land use change and forming urban landscapes. This study will provide a temporal perspective on land use change in the Constantia Valley, a high income suburb on the outskirts of Cape Town. It will contextualise the efforts to conserve its heritage and, furthermore, attempt to explain the factors underlying the observed changes in the urban form. This study, through the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping and a series of interviews, examines how and why the urban form of the Constantia Valley has changed. Finally, based on the findings the possible future urban form of Constantia will be considered. 2014-12-30T06:41:24Z 2014-12-30T06:41:24Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10517 eng application/pdf Department of Environmental and Geographical Science Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
