Visualising world population density as an interactive multi-scale map using the global human settlement population layer
Recent advances in global population data are enabling new cartographic and analytical opportunities. The Global Human Settlement Layer is the first sub-1 km cell resolution global population density product released as open data, with many applications in the fields of global population dynamics, urban studies and natural hazard risk. There are several cartographic challenges with visualising ...
متن کاملETH World - New Perspectives for Collaborative Design
Information Technology, globalization and new budgetary processes have growing impact on universities. Planning and design are no longer restricted to the invention and construction of physical artifacts and architecture. The number of non-physical or virtual aspects of buildings is growing steadily. The emergence of rapidly changing and spatially distributed research teams requires new types o...
متن کاملPreliminary Assessment of the Global Urban Footprint and the Global Human Settlement Layer for the city of Milan
Two new global urban products have recently appeared: the Global Urban Footprint (GUF) and the Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL). This paper evaluates the GUF and GHSL for the city of Milan, Italy through comparison with two European Union (EU) land use/cover reference products, namely the Urban Atlas and LUCAS. The results demonstrate that the GUF and GHSL are very similar to each other and...
متن کاملGlobal Population Distribution Analysis
Population distribution has been long studied. There are no clear answers as to what the major influential factors that drive population density are. Using ArcGIS 9.1, this study focuses on global population distribution and it’s relationship to selected biological and environmental factors. Using geoprocessing techniques such as reclassify, weighted overlay and modelbuilder, models where creat...
متن کاملThe path to mapping the global urban footprint using TanDEM-X data
Global mapping of urban environments is a challenging task. Earth observation is probably the only source possibly providing a consistent and area-wide data set. With the German TanDEM-X mission two global coverages of high resolution radar data will be available for 2011 and 2012. While the main task of the mission is the derivation of a global digital elevation model, the collected data will ...
