Urban structure type mapping method using spatial metrics and remote sensing imagery classification
(2021-01-01)
Urban Structure Types (USTs) stand for areas with homogeneous appearance over the urban matrix. The use of spatial metrics rises as a convenient alternative to quantify the homogeneity of areas on a specific scale. Remote ...
Urban form datasets of 194 cities delineated based on the contiguous urban fabric for 1990 and 2015
(Elsevier Inc., 2020-12)
The present research datasets were processed for the article “The global homogenization of urban form. An assessment of 194 cities across time” [1]. They consist of land cover spatial layers, longitude and latitude point ...
Mortality amenable to healthcare in Latin American cities: a cross-sectional study examining between-country variation in amenable mortality and the role of urban metrics
(Oxford University Press, 2021)
BACKGROUND: This study examined the variation in city-level amenable mortality, i.e. mortality due to conditions that can be mitigated in the presence of timely and effective healthcare, in 363 Latin American cities and ...
Policy Metrics for Coherent and Socially Inclusive Urban Transformation in Mobility and Energy
(Fondo Editorial FCSHMedellín, 2022)
The global homogenization of urban form. An assessment of 194 cities across time
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-12)
The spatial structure of cities, i.e. their composition, shape and degree of fragmentation or compactness, is a physical expression reflecting development efficiency. Identifying the evolution of urban systems in time and ...
From urban form analysis to metrics for enhancing tsunami evacuation: Lessons from twelve Chilean cities
(ELSEVIER, 2021)
In the case of near-field tsunami emergencies, evacuation is considered the most important and effective method to save human lives. While significant efforts have been carried out to examine the relationships between urban ...
Urban rain-fed lakes: macro-invertebrate assemblages associated with Egeria najas as indicators of biological integrity in wetlands of Corrientes Province (Argentina)
(Springer, 2019-03)
In northeast Corrientes Province, there are more than 50,000 semi-rounded shallow rain-fed lakes. Several lakes have been disturbed mainly because urbanization causes eutrophication due to the illegal discharge of wastewater. ...
Geometria do taxista
(Universidade Tecnológico Federal do ParanáCampo Mourao, 2012)
This monograph explores the Taxicab Geometry that due to its peculiar way of measuring distances, which differs from Euclidean geometry that we used, some problems loci were explored, as well as applications such as the ...
