Simulating Block-Level Urban Expansion for National Wide Cities
Large-scale models are generally associated with large spatial modelling units, for example, counties or super grids (several to dozens of km2). Few applied urban models can achieve a large spatial coverage with irregular spatial units due to data availability and computation load. The framework of automatic identification and characterization of blocks developed by Liu and Long (2016) makes su...
متن کاملSimulating urban expansion in the parcel level for all Chinese cities
Large-scale models are generally associated with big modelling units in space, like counties or super grids (several to dozens km). Few applied urban models can pursue largescale extent with fine-level units simultaneously due to data availability and computation load. The framework of automatic identification and characterization parcels developed by Long and Liu (2013) makes such an ideal mod...
متن کاملApplying SLEUTH for simulating urban expansion of Hangzhou
Urbanization is found to be closely associated with land use/land cover change which has an important influence in our environment and ecosystems, such as urban heat island effect, biodiversity loss, soil erosion, and pollutions. Studies on accurately simulating urban expansion have been inspired by increasing concerns of the sustainability of urban development. This paper reports our research ...
متن کاملDeveloping a model for simulating urban expansion based on the concept of decision risk: A case study in Babol city
Today, the study of the spatial-temporal pattern of urban physical expansion and the identification of the parameters affecting the expansion play a crucial role in urban-related decision-making and long-term planning processes. Consequently, the use of precise and efficient methods to predict the physical expansion of urban areas is of great importance. The objective of present study is to pro...
متن کاملReshaping Cities, Rebuilding Nations: The Role of National Urban Policies
The challenges of rapid urbanisation in large parts of Africa are beyond the capacity of local government to manage. The paper explores the arguments for a national urban policy to complement local strategies, reflecting the unique power of the central state and the special circumstances of cities. With appropriate support, urbanisation could become a more positive force for economic and human ...
