TL;DR: The state factor approach is used to highlight the role of important aspects of climate, substrate, organisms, relief, and time in differentiating urban from non-urban areas, and for determining heterogeneity within spatially extensive metropolitan areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of Open Space on Residential Property Values
TL;DR: In this article, the marginal values of different open space attributes were tested using a hedonic pricing model with residential sales data from central Maryland, and the identification problems that arise due to endogenous land use spillovers and unobserved spatial correlation were addressed using instrumental variables estimation with a randomly drawn subset of the data that omits nearest neighbors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory, data, methods: developing spatially explicit economic models of land use change
TL;DR: This article reviewed some of the advances that have been made by geographers and natural scientists in developing spatially disaggregate and explicit models of spatial land use change, focusing on their modeling of the economic process associated with land use changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The evolution of urban sprawl: Evidence of spatial heterogeneity and increasing land fragmentation
TL;DR: Estimated fragmentation gradients that describe mean fragmentation as a function of distance from urban centers confirm the hypotheses that fragmentation rises and falls with distance and that the point of maximum fragmentation shifted outward over time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interacting agents, spatial externalities and the evolution of residential land use patterns
TL;DR: In this article, a model of land use conversion that incorporates local spillover effects among spatially distributed agents is developed to test the hypothesis that fragmented patterns of development in rural-urban fringe areas could be due to negative externalities that create a'repelling' effect among residential land parcels.
