Dynamics of development of the largest cities - Evidence from Poland
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a methodology for analyzing the dynamics of urban spaces in six the largest cities in Poland which were surveyed in 2002-2016, based on an analysis of the trend and the intensity of changes concerning geolocation data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landslide risk management analysis on expansive residential areas - case study of La Marina (Alicante, Spain)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors lay down objective criteria to find how suitable a specific local entity's risk management is by looking at the evolution of its urban development procedures and determine what causes the incidence of landslide risk (geomorphology, chance, landmanagement, etc.).

Coastalization patterns in the Mediterranean: a spatiotemporal analysis of coastal urban sprawl in tourism destination areas
TL;DR: In this article , the authors developed a spatiotemporal and data-driven methodological approach that is capable of quantifying the dynamics of coastal urban sprawl, which is tested in four Mediterranean highly-rated tourism destinations in Spain, France, Italy and Greece.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possibilities Use to Selected Methods of Spatial Data Mining in Demographic Data Analytics
TL;DR: The availability of high-resolution data and accurate analytical tools enhances the value of spatial analyses, and the described models can be universally applied to support the decision-making process.

Are European Cities Becoming Dispersed? A Comparative Analysis of 15 European Urban Areas
Marjo Kasanko,José I. Barredo,Carlo Lavalle,Niall McCormick,Luca Demicheli,Valentina Sagris,Arne Brezger +6 more
TL;DR: It is clear that the structure of European cities has become less compact and in most cases it is mere a question of taste whether to call it urban sprawl or urban dispersion.

The Impact of Urban Form on U.S. Residential Energy Use
Reid Ewing,Fang Rong +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a conceptual framework linking urban form to residential energy use via three causal pathways: electric transmission and distribution losses, energy requirements of different housing stocks, and space heating and cooling requirements associated with urban heat islands.

Land resource impact indicators of urban sprawl
John E. Hasse,Richard G. Lathrop +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of five indicators that examine the per capita consumption of land taken in new development in relation to several critical land resource impacts associated to sprawl including: density of new urbanization, loss of prime farmland; loss of natural wetlands; (4) loss of core forest habitat; (5) increase of impervious surface.

Urban sprawl in the Mediterranean?: Patterns of growth and change in the Barcelona Metropolitan Region 1993–2000
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the recent process of urban growth against the background of urban compactness and extreme densification represented by the Barcelona Metropolitan Region (BMR) and conclude that polycentric metropolitan areas such as the BMR may be more adjusted to absorb the negative effects of dispersion than monocentric areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a geospatial model to quantify, describe and map urban growth
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an urban growth model, which is based on land cover derived from remotely sensed satellite imagery, determines the geographic extent, patterns, and classes of urban growth over time.
