Land cover maps reasonably depict areas that are strongly converted by human activities, but typically are unable to resolve low-density but widespread development patterns. Data products specifically designed to resolve land uses complement land cover datasets and likely improve our ability to understand the extent and complexity of human modification. Methods for developing a comprehensive la...

Defined and evaluated are concepts and characteristics of net change, a method that facilitates replanning and provides timely response to chunge in a transaction-oriented system. (MRP) entail an inherent massive data-handling task. Consequently , batch-oriented MRP systems tend to be untimely in their response to change since replanning can be done only periodically at best, probably once a we...

Market-oriented production systems generally have the characteristics of multi-product and small-batch production. Dynamic virtual cellular manufacturing create cells periodically in a planning horizon to respond changing demands flexibly quickly, thus are suitable for problems market-oriented systems. In current research, we propose dynamic cell reconfiguration framework under environment with...

T he problems of urban sprawl-low-density residential and commercial development, road traffic congestion and high cost public transit systems are the result of the cumulative, long-term effect of disjointed planning decisions on the urban fabric. What is needed to offset the planning mistakes of the last 30 years is an integrated approach to land use and transportation planning. Existing plann...

Institutional mapping is a technique that builds on the logic of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). In GIS, coverages placed over a base map show spatial relations. Social institutions are more difficult to ‘‘map’’ physically. Institutional mapping uses three social coverages—scale, power, and capital. Four sets of institutions affecting watershed management—salmon restoration, water quality...

Abstract. This article presents a proposal framed in urban visual analytics, which aims to facilitate the exploration and analysis of zonal spatial indicators over time for case large city-region. The context this is carried out evaluation impact interventions land use transportation, based on data produced by an integrated simulation system. amount evaluate scenario makes urgent effort design ...

Spatial planning is defined as the change of the distribution of activities in space and the change of the links between them by converting forms of land use and property. Systematic spatial planning is the most advanced level in a hierarchy from data and going to information and knowledge, collected on each level of territorial holarchy. Systematization is achieved by data converting into high...

Overview There has often been an uneasy relationship between politics and planning in the selection of the policies and investments that shape urban areas. Competing interests vie to shape these decisions through the political process, while planning attempts to rationalize the process through analytical methods. Experience has shown that politics all too often trumps analysis, leaving both sid...

The Resilient Cities Network initiated by the Rockefeller Foundation advocates achieving goal of comprehensive resilient urban development through land-use planning, but implementation resilience must be achieved a vulnerability analysis. Lowry Model is earliest and most used integrated transportation allocation model. Its operation mainly based on accessibility indicators to allocate populatio...
