Purpose-This article it’s a research report, which intends to explain the specific steps and methods of the preliminary ecological investigation and analysis of the Augustenstraße block reconstruction project. Design/methodology/approach-We used some professional maps, software and SWOT analysis methodology in this research and analysis, which objectively presented the existing ecological status of the site. Then compare it with European standards to find problems. Findings -The most important findings in our research included the notion that the city, the district, and the study area have significant green spaces. Nevertheless, this greenery is disconnected from the constructed areas, resulting in the drastic reduction of benefits provided by regulating and supporting ecosystem services. Similarly, the study area has a considerable variety of green places providing benefits such as regulating and supporting biodiversity services reflected in the diversity of species on site. However, most of them are disconnected from each other and are of private use with limited access only to neighbours living around them, reducing the possibility of more people benefiting from them. Presently, Augustenstraße users are still exposed to disservices such as contaminated air, the island heat effect -especially during summer- and disconnection with nature due to its current use as a parking lot and the unbalance between hard and green surfaces. Subsequently, spaces and surfaces available at different levels could be further integrated into the green structure of the street increasing the cooling effect. Finally, determine the facades legal status to identify which are declared protected heritage. Project overview-The following is the ecological analysis of Augustenstr. Located in the district of Stuttgart-West. The analysis is divided into the research question, research methods, SWOT analysis, findings and next steps. The main research methods were Remote Sensing, GIS maps, and data collection directly in the study area.
