Book Spatio temporal Analysis and Optimization of Land Use Cover Change

Download or read book Spatio temporal Analysis and Optimization of Land Use Cover Change written by Biao Liu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a method to solve land use problems, and has made some significant contributions to the land use analysis and optimization study fields. Firstly, three spatio-temporal logit models for land use change analysis, namely, geographically and temporally weighted logit model (GTWLM), spatio-temporal panel logit model (ST-PLM) and generalized spatio-temporal logit model (GSTLM), are proposed. GTWLM, which considers spatio-temporal non-stationarity, includes temporal data in a spatio-temporal framework by proposing a spatiotemporal distance. ST-PLM incorporates the spatio-temporal correlation and individual effect in one model. By integrating GTWLM and ST-PLM, the GSTLM explores spatio-temporal non-stationarity and correlations simultaneously, whilst considering their individual effects to construct an integrated model. Secondly, a MOO-based two-level spatial planning of land use is proposed. The spatial planning aims at managing and coordinating the land use at different geographic extents and involves spatial layouts and structures of land use at different levels. In spatial planning, GIS and Remote Sensing are used to evaluate, analyze, and measure environmental, economic and social issues. The quantitative relationships between these objectives and spatial land use allocation are then used as rules in the MOO process to simulate environmental conditions under different spatial land use allocation scenarios. The book features a case study of Shenzhen city, the most important Special Economic Zone in China. This book will be of interest to academics and professionals in the fields of urban planning, land resource management, remote sensing and geographic information systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Conference on Science, Engineering and Technology Practices for Sustainable Development (ICSETPSD-23) brought researchers, scientists, engineers, industrial professionals, and scholar students for the dissemination of original research results, new ideas, and practical development experiences which concentrate on both theory and practices from around the world in all the areas of science, engineering, and technology practices for sustainable development. The theme of ICSETPSD-23 was “Science, Engineering and Technology for sustainable development”. The technical program of ICSETPSD-23 consisted of 140 full papers, scheduled for oral presentation sessions at the main conference tracks. The conference tracks were: Track 1 – Science for sustainable development; Track 2 – Sustainability through Engineering; Track 3 – Sustainable developments in Health Care; and Track 4 – Technology practices for sustainability. Aside from the high quality technical paper presentations, the technical program also featured eight keynote speeches and one invited talk. We strongly believe that ICSETPSD-23 conference provides a good forum for all researchers, developers, and practitioners to discuss all science and technology aspects that are relevant to sustainable developments. We also expect that the future ICSETPSD conference will be as successful and stimulating, as indicated by the contributions presented in this volume.

Book Resources and Environmental Management for Green Development

Download or read book Resources and Environmental Management for Green Development written by Fengtai Zhang and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-02-09 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resources are the material basis for human development, while the environment is the fundamental condition for human development. The exploitation and utilization of resources will lead to environmental changes, which in return will have an impact on resources. At present, due to the increase of population and the continuous expansion scale of human production activities, how to address the trade-off between resources exploitation and environment protection has become an important issue for human sustainable development. Green development is a mode of economic growth and social development that emphasizes efficiency, harmony and sustainability. It can realize the coordination and sustainability among population, economy and social development, resources and environment, and is a promising means to solve the current problems associated with resources and environment.

Book Land Use Modelling in Planning Practice

Download or read book Land Use Modelling in Planning Practice written by Eric Koomen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-08-25 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of recent developments and applications of the Land Use Scanner model, which has been used in spatial planning for well over a decade. Internationally recognized as among the best of its kind, this versatile model can be applied at a national level for trend extrapolation, scenario studies and optimization, yet can also be employed in a smaller-scale regional context, as demonstrated by the assortment of regional case studies included in the book. Alongside these practical examples from the Netherlands, readers will find discussion of more theoretical aspects of land-use models as well as an assessment of various studies that aim to develop the Land-Use Scanner model further. Spanning the divide between the abstractions of land-use modelling and the imperatives of policy making, this is a cutting-edge account of the way in which the Land-Use Scanner approach is able to interrogate a spectrum of issues that range from climate change to transportation efficiency. Aimed at planners, researchers and policy makers who need to stay abreast of the latest advances in land-use modelling techniques in the context of planning practice, the book guides the reader through the applications supported by current instrumentation. It affords the opportunity for a wide readership to benefit from the extensive and acknowledged expertise of Dutch planners, who have originated a host of much-used models.
