Abstract
This paper presents the investigation results on the classification of the university campuses. For the classification, we selected the spatial index as the evaluation indicator since the environmental factors and maintenance methods vary from university campus to university campus. For the study, we used eight spatial indices of the 30 national universities. This paper provides the spatial characteristics of different campus types, presents campus classification analysis as a future research approach to campus maintenance, and provides the data for the future study of comparison among universities. The results are as follows. 1) The classification investigation categorized the university campuses into three groups. Type 1 is a large-scale type, located near downtown. Type 2 is a medium-scale type, located at a remote site from downtown. Type 3 is a small-scale type, which is located comparatively near downtown. 2) Type 1 is a large-scale mixed area type, and 13 universities belong to this group. Type 2 is a medium-scale suburban area type, and six universities are in this group. Finally, Type 3 is a small-scale downtown area type, and 11 universities belong to this group.
