Daily variation of urban heat island effect and its correlations to urban greenery: A case study of Adelaide

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors mapped the East-West air temperature profile of the Adelaide metropolitan area in 60 journeys alongside a straight cross route connecting Adelaide Hills to the West Beach under clear sky between 26 July and 15 August 2013.
Journal ArticleDOI

Urban morphology and landscape structure effect on land surface temperature: Evidence from Shiraz, a semi-arid city

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between the pattern of built-up areas and land surface temperature in a semi-arid urban environment was investigated, where spectral and landscape indices, such as Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), NDBI, Shannon diversity index (SHDI), Landscape Shape Index (LSI), Fractal Dimension Index (FRAC), and Landscape Division Index (DIVISION), along with morphological variables (parcel density, housing density, road density, Floor area ratio, Mass-Space proportion, and distance to CBD) were applied to
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring spatial autocorrelation of traffic crashes based on severity.

TL;DR: While crashes emerged a clustered pattern, comparison of the spatio-temporal separations showed an accidental spread in distinct categories, so the local governmental agencies can use the outcomes to adopt more effective strategies for traffic safety planning and management.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hospital site selection using two-stage fuzzy multi-criteria decision making process

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the process and results of a hospital site selection within the Region 5 of Shiraz metropolitan area, Iran using integrated fuzzy analytical network process systems with Geographic Information System (GIS).

Analyzing the Impacts of Microscale Urban Attributes on Travel: Evidence from Suburban Adelaide, Australia

TL;DR: In this article, a comparative study of travel patterns among residents of four suburban residential areas in metropolitan Adelaide in Australia is presented, showing that suburban development pattern and design attributes can potentially create shifts in transport modal split suggesting that microscale urban features should be given more attention in transport policy making.
