Integrative spatial-spectral-temporal remote sensor models of urban configuration and sustainability
نویسنده
چکیده
Urban remote sensor geocomputation is at a crossroads. In one direction lie opportunities for developing models for detailed mapping of urban morphology from very high spatial resolution imagery; and in the other the possibility of creating broader integrative models that link spectra with functional variables for measuring urban growth and sustainability. The former overlaps with traditional photogrammetry and has many civil engineering applications while the latter is far more in line with urban geography issues that deal with deprivation, accessibility, and quality of life.

Investigation of changes in surface urban heat-island (SUHI) in day and night using multi-temporal MODIS sensor data products (Case Study: Tehran metropolitan)
The term urban heat island (UHI), described the phenomenon of climate change in urban areas compared with surrounding rural areas. UHI effects include: increasing in energy and water consumption, air pollution expansion and interfering in thermal comfort. Surface urban heat island (SUHI) contains patterns of land surface temperature (LST) in urban areas that has interaction with UHI in urban ca...

Abstract Urban form can be affected by diverse factors in different times. Socio- economic, political and physical factors are among the main contributors. So, one of the most important challenges of urban planners is measuring and identifying urban development pattern in order to direct and strengthen it to sustainable pattern and right direction. The case study of the present paper is the ...

The simplest definition of urbanization is that urbanization is the process of becoming urban. Urban climate is defined by specific climate conditions which differ from surrounding rural areas. Urban areas, for example, have higher temperatures than surrounding rural areas and weaker winds. Land Surface Temperature is an important phenomenon in global climate change. As the green house gases in...
