description Hedemora is the oldest town in Dalarna; traditionally acting as an important junction for trade. Nowadays, the town is suffering from a declining population and a poor economy. Therefore, it is important to explore how to best spend the money needed for Hedemora to become an attractive city once again. "Sociotops" are public spaces that have been evaluated by their users and by city planners, both working together. The result in the sociotop investigation will be used as a basis for city planning and as a foundation for discussing how to make the town a nicer environment. The sociotop investigation attempts to answer the questions: What places are popular and why? And What places are disliked? I approached the questions by using questionnaires, by arranging public walks in the city and by holding group interviews with children, along with my own observations. The information I have gathered is most detailed for children and youth between the ages of seven and twenty years old. This is good because they spend a lot of time outside, but seldom have any part in the planning process. The most popular place in Hedemora is Sveaparken, while the most well used place is Åsgatan. Åsgatan is a necessary place for everyday life because that is where all the shops are. Sveaparken, on the other hand, is used by free will. Generally speaking, the most well liked places are open-air recreational areas and sports grounds, and well managed, central located, parks with some sort of extra activity or social meaning. The sociotops will change as the town and its inhabitants develop, therefore the sociotop investigation has to continue. Otherwise it will soon be useless.

Hedemora är Dalarnas äldsta stad med anrika traditioner som traktens största handelsknutpunkt. Nu för tiden dras orten med minskande invånarantal och sämre ekonomi. Därför är det viktigt att ta reda på hur man bäst använder sina pengar för att åter bli en attraktiv stad. Sociotoper är offentliga platser i stadens utemiljö som värderats av brukare och planerare gemensamt. Resultatet i sociotopundersökningen kommer att användas som planeringsunderlag i stadsplaneringen och som diskussionsplattform i kommunens arbete med miljömålet God Bebyggd Miljö. Sociotopundersökningen behandlar frågor som Vilka platser är omtyckta och varför? och Vilka platser är inte omtyckta? Jag har försökt ta reda på detta genom enkätundersökningar, gångturer för allmänheten och gruppintervjuer med skolbarn, samt genom egna observationer. Svarsunderlaget jag fått in är störst för barn och ungdomar i åldrarna 7 till 20 år vilket är bra eftersom de ofta vistas utomhus men sällan tillfrågas i planeringen. Det regleras också i Hedemoras barnplan att barn ska tillfrågas, vilket inte alltid sker. Den mest omtyckta friytan i Hedemora är Sveaparken, den mest använda är Åsgatan. Åsgatan är en nödvändig vardagsplats där handeln sker, Sveaparken är däremot en frivilligt vald vistelseplats. Generellt sett är friluftsområdena och motionsanläggningarna omtyckta liksom välskötta parker med någon form av extra aktivitet eller social funktion i centrala lägen. Sociotoperna kommer förändras i takt med att staden och dess invånare utvecklas, därför måste sociotopundersökningen fortgå för att inte bli oanvändbar. 2006-05-16 Other NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/12394/7/BILAGOR_nya_kartor.pdf application/pdf sv https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/12394/18/axling_a_171018.pdf Axling, Anna, 2006.
