Geospatial Analysis to Support Urban Planning in Beijing

Authors: *Long*, Ying, *Shen*, Zhenjiang

- Shows how geospatial analysis can be a useful tool to help in
ascertaining patterns of activities and support urban planning


- About this book
<http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783319193410#aboutBook>

This book describes a comprehensive framework of novel simulation
approaches, conventional urban models and related data mining techniques
that helps develop planning support systems in Beijing as well as other
mega-metropolitan areas. It investigates the relationships between human
behaviors and spatial patterns in order to simulate activities in an urban
space, visualize planning alternatives, and support decision making. The
book first explains urban space using geometric patterns, such as points,
networks, and polygons, that help identify patterns of household and
individual human behavior. Next, it details how novel simulation
methodologies, such as cellular automaton and multi-agent systems, and
conventional urban modeling, such as spatial interaction models, can be
used to identify an optimal or a simulated solution for a better urban
form. The book develops a comprehensive land use and transportation
integrated model used to explore the spatial patterns of mutual interaction
between human mobility and urban space. This model can help forecast the
distribution of different types of households, rent prices and land prices,
as well as the distribution of routes and traffic volume based on an
appraisal of labor demand and supply. This book shows how geospatial
analysis can be a useful tool for planners and decision makers to assist in
ascertaining patterns of activities and support urban planning. Offering
both novel and conventional approaches to urban modeling, it will appeal to
researchers, students, and policy makers looking for the optimal way to
plan the development of a mega-metropolitan area.
