Book Spatial Planning and Fiscal Impact Analysis

Download or read book Spatial Planning and Fiscal Impact Analysis written by Linda Tomaselli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spatial Fiscal Impact Analysis Method is an innovative approach to measure fiscal impact and project the future costs of a proposed development, recognizing that all revenues and expenditures are spatially related. The Spatial Method focuses on estimating existing fiscal impacts of detailed land use categories by their location. It takes advantage of readily available data that reflect the flows of revenues and expenditures in a city, using the tools of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The result is a comprehensive yet transparent database for measuring existing fiscal impacts and projecting the impacts of future development or redevelopment. This book will provide readers with guidance as to how to conduct the Spatial Method in their own cities. The book will provide an overview of the history of fiscal analysis, and demonstrate the advantages of the Spatial Method to other methods, taking the reader step by step through the process, from analyzing city financial reports, determining and developing the factors that are needed to model the flows of revenues and expenditures, and then estimating fiscal impact at the parcel level. The result is a summary of detailed land use categories and neighborhoods that will be invaluable to city planners and public administration officials everywhere.

Book Planning and Socioeconomic Applications

Download or read book Planning and Socioeconomic Applications written by Jay D. Gatrell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-02-03 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter has shown a small sample of GIS applications in economic devel- ment. GIS is a powerful tool for data analysis and presentation, and the economic development rami cations are truly signi cant. The speed at which data and stra- gies can be coordinated is clearly changing the way economic developers approach their job. There are a number of important trends that are likely to result in GIS becoming more pervasive in the economic development community. These include declining costs of GIS software, increased computing power, and the growth of Web-based GIS applications. There also has been increase in GIS skills among economic development professionals. References Bastian, L. (2002). Getting the best from the web.

Book The Fiscal Impact Handbook

Download or read book The Fiscal Impact Handbook written by David Listokin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fiscal Impact Handbook is a unique manual detailing practical methods for determining the full range of revenues and costs associated with residential and nonresidential growth. Planners, economists, businessmen, administrators, financial officers, assessors, community groups, private organizations, and those interested in the fiscal consequences of growth and non-growth will find The Fiscal Impact Handbook indispensable. Fiscal impact methods are presented in a clear, step-by-step format and are capable of being carried out by the practicing planner with minimal procedural problems.The manual is designed as a basic tool to be used for projections of direct, current public (and private) costs and revenues resulting from population or employment change to the local jurisdiction in which change is taking place. Standardized methods are presented with attention paid to the underlying assumptions, limitations, and applicability of these methods. Necessary factors affecting the planning and legal framework and documentation of key data input are covered for proper utilization of fiscal impact methods.Detailed examples are given to the six flexible methods, presented with suggestions on how they can be modified by the user to meet requirements. In addition, current computer models of analysis are evaluated for operational needs and benefits. Included also is a comprehensive bibliography of the cost-revenue field and an index for quick, easy reference. This is an invaluable work for urban analysts, planners, and developers written by two of the top minds in the field of urban policy.

Book A Geographic Information System Approach for Mapping and Assessing the Climate Change

Download or read book A Geographic Information System Approach for Mapping and Assessing the Climate Change written by Mohamed A. Nasef and published by MR Science and Arts Publishers Inc.. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last year's great efforts have been made to study the climate change, which the temperature changes are the main cause to it. Therefore, efforts have increased to solve these problems; methods for investigating the means variances, anomalies, trends changes, and likely threats. This book is produced to discuss the approach of GIS in the analysis of climate change data. At a time when talking about GIS technique, we mean "toward the best world" by solving the problems and protecting our planet. The book shows the approach and methodology of GIS in mapping and assessing climate change trends. Geographical Information Science and System (GIS) can be a powerful tool for analyzing the climate change problem and determining of the Affecting Factors. The book comprises many of topics such as climate change concepts, History, and Future, GIS concepts, approach and methodology in Exploration of Temperature Data, Geostatistical analysis, interpolation methods, spatial and temporal analysis of temperature trends.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the though that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemi nation. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 37 (thesis year 1992) a total of 12,549 thesis titles from 25 Canadian and 153 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 37 reports theses submitted in 1992, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Geographic Information Systems in Environment Management

Download or read book Geographic Information Systems in Environment Management written by Quan Cui and published by Delve Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of Geographic Information Systems in Environmental Management has seen unprecedented growth in the last ten years. While the expanding of GIS system memories, researchers can handle much larger geographic environment data. As more and more GIS application cases used in environmental - related research works, this technology has been developed and improved as well. Geographic information systems provide a great deal of information and analytical capacity for people's understanding of how human's activities impact on the environment. In this book, topics covered land use sustainability, natural resources management and planning, novel modelling methods for environment and geography, environmental management assessment tools and decision-making approaches. Research areas in this book included Europe, North America and East Asia.
