PAISAGEM HUMANIZADA: PROCEDIMENTOS TECNOLÓGICO-PROCESSUAIS PARA CIDADES (PÓS-)PANDÊMICAS

INTRODUCTION: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and its consequent health crisis instigated new reflections and publications in various fields of knowledge related to its impacts. Many of these interferences have been caused by isolation restrictions, affecting psychological conditions, routine activities, and human movements, giving rise to the need to reformulate public policies, among others measures. In urbanized scenarios, the increased understanding of the importance of green areas and open spaces in the social relationships and the mental health of citizens, as well as the quality of urban infrastructure and functionality, has led to a reconfiguration of the urbanistic thinking. AIMS: Faced with this problem, associated with the indispensability of humanizing the cities through innovative alternatives of technologies and processes, the general objective of the research is to identify essential technological-processual procedures for interpreting humanized landscape and provinding solutions for (post-)pandemic cities. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Employing a qualiquantitative approach, the multi-method structure (exploratory, descriptive and analytical) of the research is defined in three parts. The first consisted on identifying theories and concepts on the subject, while the second involved the bibliometric study of secondary sources, with a consultation of the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) database and subsequent quantification of results and classification of text typologies, geographic contexts and thematic relevance. The third stage involved the proposition of subsidies for public policies on project, planning, and management. RESULTS: As responses to the research problem regarding essential methodological-technological procedures for examining the theme, the results comprise a total of 949 texts. Subsequently, with the application of filters and selection criteria for reading, the final screening correspondes to 76 articles. The investigative findings demonstrate that despite the limited direct application of technological innovations in planning and management processes, the proposed alternatives are promising for spatial reconfigurations to enable healthy and resilient environments. Finally, the relevance of landscapes and public spaces during times of social isolation is highlighted, as they are conceived as places for citizens interaction and coexistence. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: In conclusion, this research contributes to the subsequent joint test of the research group of the hypothesis that the simulation of innovative measures, adjusted to different socio-urban conditions, enables the mitigation adversities of adversities stemming from pandemic events, with the configuration of contemporary cities for future times.
