Abstract

The study aims to grasp the perception and appraisal of urban park users through text analysis. This study used Google review data provided by Google Maps. Google Maps Review is an online review platform that provides information evaluating locations through social media and provides an understanding of locations from the perspective of general reviewers and regional guides who are registered as members of Google Maps. The study determined if the Google Maps Reviews were useful for extracting meaningful information about the user perceptions and appraisals for parks management plans. The study chose three urban parks in Seoul, South Korea; Seoul Forest, Boramae Park, and Olympic Park. Review data for each of these three parks were collected via web crawling using Python. Through text analysis, the keywords and network structure characteristics for each park were analyzed. The text was analyzed, as were park ratings, and the analysis compared the reviews of residents and foreign tourists. The common keywords found in the review comments for the three parks were "walking", "bicycle", "rest" and "picnic" for activities, "family", "child" and "dogs" for accompanying types, and "playground" and "walking trail" for park facilities. Looking at the characteristics of each park, Seoul Forest shows many outdoor activities based on nature, while the lack of parking spaces and congestion on weekends negatively impacted users. Boramae Park has the appearance of a city park, with various facilities providing numerous activities, but reviewers often cited the park's complexity and the negative aspects in terms of dog walking groups. At Olympic Park, large-scale complex facilities and cultural events were frequently mentioned, emphasizing its entertainment functions. Google Maps Review can function as useful data to identify parks' overall users' experiences and general feelings. Compared to data from other social media sites, Google Maps Review's data provides ratings and understanding factors, including user satisfaction and dissatisfaction.

본 연구의 목적은 Google Maps에서 제공하는 장소에 대한 리뷰를 활용하여 실제로 공원을 방문한 이용자의 인식과 평가를 파악하는 것이다. 구글맵리뷰는 Social Network Service(SNS)를 통해 장소에 대한 인식과 평가에 관한 정보를 얻는 온라인 리뷰이며, 일반 리뷰어와 구글맵의 회원으로 등록된 지역 가이드의 관점에서 장소에 대한 이해를 볼 수 있는 서비스이다. 본 연구에서는 구글맵리뷰 분석이 공원 관리에 필요한 이용자들의 인식과 평가를 추출하는데 활용될 수 있는지를 살펴보고자 하였다. 서로 다른 공간특징과 시설을 가지는 3개의 공원(서울숲, 보라매공원, 올림픽공원)을 대상으로 파이썬을 활용한 웹 크롤링을 통해서 구글맵리뷰 내용을 수집하였다. 그리고 텍스트 분석을 통해 공원별 주요 키워드 분석과 네트워크 구조에 따른 특성을 분석하고, 이와 함께 구글맵리뷰에서 제공하는 별점 평갓값과 외국인 리뷰 데이터에 대한 분석도 수행했다. 연구 결과, 3개의 공원에서 공통으로 나타나는 특성으로는 이용목적으로 '산책', '자전거', '휴식', '피크닉'이 있었으며, 동반유형으로 '가족', '아이', '애견'이, 인프라로는 '놀이터', '산책로'가 있었다. 공원별 특색을 보면 서울숲은 자연을 기반으로 하는 야외활동이 많이 나타났고 반면, 주차공간 부족과 주말 혼잡은 공원 이용자에게 부정적인 영향을 미치고 있었다. 보라매공원은 수많은 활동을 제공하는 다양한 시설을 갖춘 도시공원의 모습을 가지고 있었다. 리뷰어들은 반려견을 동반하는 이용자 그룹과 그렇지 않은 다른 이용자 그룹 간의 갈등과 공원의 복잡함에 대한 부정적인 측면을 언급했다. 올림픽공원에는 대형 복합시설이 있으며, 커뮤니티, 문화예술공연과 같은 대규모 문화 이벤트가 많이 언급되었고, 레크리에이션 기능이 강조되었다. 구글맵리뷰는 공원에 대한 이용자의 전반적 경험과 이미지에 대한 특징을 파악하는 유용한 자료라고 할 수 있다. 또한, 다른 소셜미디어 데이터와 비교할 때 특히 구글맵리뷰는 공원에 대한 이용자 평갓값과 만족 및 불만족 요인을 이해할 수 있는 데이터를 제공한다.
