TL;DR: This work proposes a method to automatically identify and characterize parcels using OpenStreetMap (OSM) and points of interest (POI) data and adopts a vector-based cellular automata model to select urban parcels in China.

TL;DR: The authors performed a bibliometric analysis of published biodiversity research for the period of 1900-2009, based on the Science Citation Index (SCI) database, revealing the authorial, institutional, spatio-temporal, and categorical patterns in biodiversity research and providing an alternative demonstration of research advancements, which may serve as a potential guide for future research.

TL;DR: In this article, the spatial structure of urbanized area within individual cities and identifies population centers within cities that are at the prefectural level and above were examined, and it was shown that higher degrees of polycentricity are associated with cities in fragmented landscapes.

TL;DR: Liu et al. as discussed by the authors measured polycentric urban development in 22 urban regions in China by analysing intercity transportation networks and identified a typology of Chinese urban regions based on individual regions' functionally and morphologically polycentricity.

TL;DR: In this paper, a critical reflection on the low-quality urban expansion in the previous decades and called for the making of vital and lively urban places has been presented, which led to critical reflections on low quality urban expansion.
