This paper will show one way to generate land use maps from register data. The register data used here is the Danish Building and Dwelling Register (BBR). The thematic result map showing urban land use will be based on a regular grid net with cell size of 100 m by 100 m. Each cell will be classified, based on the information on the buildings falling inside that cell. This paper will also presen...

Land use maps are very important references for the urban planning and management. However, it is difficult and time-consuming to get high-resolution urban land use maps. In this study, we propose a new method to derive land use information at building block level based on machine learning and geo-tagged street-level imagery – Google Street View images. Several commonly used generic image featu...

We find empirical support for a model that incorporates the option to wait to develop land. The option model has explanatory power for predicting transactions prices over and above the intrinsic value. Market prices reflect a premium for the option to wait to inv...
