How residents perceive smellscape and soundscape in the city was investigated in this study. A survey using questionnaire was conducted in Hakodate city asking what and where they recognize the components which constitute smellscape and soundscape. Distance between their home and the source of elements showed that those components were classified into two types : "daily-life type" and "image-evoking type".

@The purpose of this study is to define the concept of "smellscape" and to develop a method to describe it. As a first attempt to clarify the elements which constitute smellscape, a survey using questionnaire was conducted to ask 240 municipal city planners how they interested in the concept and what and where they have smellscape and soundscape in their territory, and whether or not they have had or plan to have projects for improving acoustic and olfactory environment. The survey revealed that the significance of non-visual factors in city planning was well recognized although number of actual projects were quite limited.
