Urban planners are dealing with problems of urban sprawl and CO2 emissions. The multidimensional character of these phenomena requires new analysis and visualization tools that are unavailable in platforms like the Geographical Information Systems (GIS). This paper, first, presents an approach for measuring and monitoring urban sprawl and carbon footprints. Second, it offers a three-dimensional...

Monitoring urban growth and measuring urban sprawl is essential for improving urban planning and development. In this paper, we introduce a supervised approach for the delineation of urban areas using commonly available topographic data and commercial GIS software. The method uses a supervised parameter optimization approach along with buffer-based quality measuring method. The approach was dev...

Evidence of the health impacts of the built environment has increased rapidly. Studies have linked physical inactivity and motor-vehicle pollution to a range of health problems and have shown that activity levels and air quality are influenced by community design, land use, and transportation patterns. There is comparatively little awareness, however, of the role that laws and policies play in ...

Entropy is widely used for measuring the degree of urban sprawl. However, despite intense use entropy concept in sprawl, entropy’s spatial context has been largely ignored. In this study, we analyzed sprawl Changwon and Gimhae cities, as they shared a common boundary but differed their population growth expansion. The land cover type, “urban dry area,” was to identify areas two map showed expan...

Many theories in cognitive science assume that people possess a repertoire of strategies or a "toolbox" from which they choose depending on the situation. This approach suffers from the problem that the number of assumed strategies is often not constrained and may be extended post-hoc to improve the fit to the data. This makes it difficult to rigorously test and compare strategy repertoire mode...

This paper provides empirical evidence that helps to answer several key questions relating to the extent of urban sprawl in Europe. Building on the monocentric city model, this study uses existing data sources to derive a set of panel data for 282 European cities at three time points (1990, 2000 and 2006). Two indices of urban sprawl are calculated that, respectively, reflect changes in artific...
