Abstract:

In addition to buildings, the terrain forms an important part of a 3D city model. Although in GIS terrains are usually represented with 2D grids, TINs are also increasingly being used in practice. One example is 3DTOP10NL, the 3D city model covering the whole of the Netherlands, which stores the relief with a constrained TIN containing more than 1 billion triangles. Due to the massive size of such datasets, the main problem that arises is: how to efficiently store and maintain them? While CityGML supports the storage of TINs, we argue in this paper that the current solution is not adequate. For instance, the 1 billion+ triangles of 3DTOP10NL require 686 GB of storage space with CityGML. Furthermore, the current solution does not store the topological relationships of the triangles, and also there are no clear mechanisms to handle several LODs. We propose in this paper a CityGML extension for the <i>compact</i> representation of terrains. We describe our abstract and implementation specifications (modelled in UML), and our prototype implementation to convert TINs to our CityGML structure. It increases the topological relationships that are explicitly represented, and allows us to compress up to a factor of &sim;&thinsp;25 in our experiments with massive real-world terrains (more than 1 billion triangles).

Abstract:

Between 1914 and 1941, Los Angeles businessmen opened supermarkets across the city, beginning America's era of mass-food retailing. The very first in the world, Los Angeles supermarkets pioneered business practices and architectural standards that would, over the following decades, become industry standards. This includes self-service shopping, large low-slung buildings cooled by massive air conditioners, and a reliance on colorful displays of fresh fruits and vegetables. More significantly, Los Angeles supermarkets fundamentally reconfigured the ways Americans used urban space, first in Southern California and then across the rest of the United States.

Abstract:

Abstract. Urban air quality is one of the most prominent environmental concerns for modern city residents and authorities. Accurate monitoring of air quality is difficult due to intrinsic urban landscape heterogeneity and superposition of multiple polluting sources. Existing approaches often do not provide the necessary spatial details and peak concentrations of pollutants, especially at larger distances from monitoring stations. A more advanced integrated approach is needed. This study presents a very high-resolution air quality assessment with the Parallelized Large-Eddy Simulation Model (PALM), capitalising on local measurements. This fully three-dimensional primitive-equation hydrodynamical model resolves both structural details of the complex urban surface and turbulent eddies larger than 10 m in size. We ran a set of 27 meteorological weather scenarios in order to assess the dispersion of pollutants in Bergen, a middle-sized Norwegian city embedded in a coastal valley. This set of scenarios represents typically observed weather conditions with high air pollution from nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and particulate matter (PM2.5). The modelling methodology helped to identify pathways and patterns of air pollution caused by the three main local air pollution sources in the city. These are road vehicle traffic, domestic house heating with wood-burning fireplaces and ships docked in the harbour area next to the city centre. The study produced vulnerability maps, highlighting the most impacted districts for each weather and emission scenario. Overall, the largest contribution to air pollution over inhabited areas in Bergen was caused by road traffic emissions for NO2 and wood-burning fireplaces for PM2.5 pollution. The effect of emission from ships in the port was mostly restricted to the areas close to the harbour and moderate in comparison. However, the results have contributed to implementation of measures to reduce emissions from ships in Bergen harbour, including provision of shore power.

Abstract:

Ambon City is the most populous city in Maluku, and accessibility is one of the main challenges in meeting health service needs. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to conduct an in-depth analysis of the distance of health facility services in Ambon City. This study uses a spatial analysis method to map the location and distance between major health facilities such as hospitals, health centers, and clinics throughout Ambon City. The results show that there are diverse spatial patterns in the coverage of health facilities in Ambon City. The spatial pattern of health facility coverage in Ambon City is classified into 5 classes, namely very close covering 7,586, 42 ha, close covering 10,172, 23 ha, medium covering 3,697, 07 ha, far covering 3,473.59 ha and very far covering 7,644, 36 ha. The results of this study also show that Teluk Ambon sub-district has a very large percentage of area at the very close, close and very far reach levels of health facilities compared to other sub-districts in Ambon City, while the area at the medium and far reach levels is dominated by Nusaniwe sub-district which has a larger percentage of area than other sub-districts. This study makes an important contribution to understanding the spatial pattern of health facility coverage in Ambon City and provides a basis for spatially-based decision-making.

Abstract:

There is a huge interest worldwide related to continuously increasing the use of renewable energy sources (RES) for electricity generation. Romania, at this moment, even though it has to attain a share of 30.7% of RES from total energy consumption by 2030, does not have any major investment project of this kind in the near future. Photovoltaic (PV) is one of the most promising technologies, with decreasing prices for PV panels but with the disadvantage of large, needed surfaces. This study presents a solution to install PV panels where there is a need for electricity, in a large city, by using the surface of a reservoir. “Lacul Morii” Reservoir in Bucharest is the choice for the case study. The insolation and the possibility to install floating PV, as well as electricity generation, benefits for water quality and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions reduction are assessed, and even the installation of charging stations for electric bikes and cars. The results are very promising, and the main conclusion is that, after its realization, the floating photovoltaic (FPV) plant on “Lacul Morii” Reservoir will be a source of clean electricity and a demonstration project on how to benefit from solar energy to produce electricity in large cities where there are reservoirs.

Abstract:

Rendering large city models with high polygon count and a vast amount of textures at interactive frame rates is a rather difficult to impossible task as it highly depends on the client hardware, which is often insufficient, even if out-of-core rendering techniques and level of detail approaches are used. Rendering complex city models on mobile devices is even more challenging. An approach of rendering and caching very large city models in the cloud using ray-tracing based image provisioning is introduced. This allows rendering large scenes efficiently, including on mobile devices. With this approach, it is possible to render cities with nearly unlimited number of polygons and textures.

Abstract:

The exponential increase in photovoltaic (PV) arrays installed globally, particularly given the intermittent nature of PV generation, has emphasized the need to accurately forecast the predicted output power of the arrays. Regardless of the length of the forecasts, the modeling of PV arrays is made difficult by their dependence on weather. Typically, the model projections are generated from datasets at one location across a couple of years. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of regression models in very short-term deterministic forecasts for spatiotemporal projections. The compiled dataset is unique given that it consists of weather and output power data of PVs located at five cities spanning 3 and 6 years in length. Gated recurrent unit (GRU) generalized the best for same-city and cross-city predictions, while long short-term memory (LSTM) and ensemble bagging had the best cross-city and same-city predictions, respectively.

Abstract:

Road networks play a significant role in modern city management. It is necessary to continually extract current road structure, as it changes rapidly with the development of the city. Due to the success of semantic segmentation based on deep learning in the application of computer vision, extracting road networks from VHR (Very High Resolution) imagery becomes a method of updating geographic databases. The major shortcoming of deep learning methods for road networks extraction is that they need a massive amount of high quality pixel-wise training datasets, which is hard to obtain. Meanwhile, a large amount of different types of VGI (volunteer geographic information) data including road centerline has been accumulated in the past few decades. However, most road centerlines in VGI data lack precise width information and, therefore, cannot be directly applied to conventional supervised deep learning models. In this paper, we propose a novel weakly supervised method to extract road networks from VHR images using only the OSM (OpenStreetMap) road centerline as training data instead of high quality pixel-wise road width label. Large amounts of paired Google Earth images and OSM data are used to validate the approach. The results show that the proposed method can extract road networks from the VHR images both accurately and effectively without using pixel-wise road training data.

Abstract:

This paper presents the liquefaction potential of densely populated Kolkata city, which is situated on the world's largest delta island with very soft and thick alluvial soil deposits. Due to presence of soft alluvium deposits at shallow depths, soil resistance against liquefaction is expected to be less. Additionally, large thickness of soil layers may amplify the ground shaking resulting in high seismic demand on the soil. Here in this study, variation of factor of safety against liquefaction is evaluated with depth at different locations in Kolkota city. The study founds striking results that the Kolkata city soils are less prone to liquefaction even though there is significant ground amplification due to presence of thick soil deposits.

Abstract:

The development of Ambon City has always been linear with urbanization and land use, where an increasing number of people have urged forest lands to be converted to open lands, such as settlements, businesses, and other infrastructure in the form of built-up land. On a larger scale, the process of land-use change results in land cover changes that affect changes in the Ambon City landscape and microclimate conditions. The biogeophysical characteristic cs of Ambon City as a small island region have a large and small river basin and hilly topography makes it risky when city development pays little attention to the balance of ecological landscape aspects. Therefore this study aims to analyze the variation of the vegetation index NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) on changes in the Ambon City, Maluku Province. The results showed that during the last 25 years (1993 to 2018) there was an increase in class area from Very Rare Forest to Rare Forest by 874.04 ha, an increase in the class area of Medium Forest by 567.42 ha, an increase in class area from Dense Forest to Very Dense by 2,861.80 ha and a decrease in class area from Dense Forest to Very Dense Forest by 4,176.07 ha. If the reduction in the classes size of Dense Forest and Very Dense Forest is combined into groups of class increase of Very Rare Forest and Rare Forest, then the total increase in the land landscape area with a reduced or lost vegetation value was 5,050.11 ha.

Abstract:

Lublin is an example of a medium-sized city, whose urban layout was shaped to a large extent by the conditions resulting from changes in the transport system. The very emergence of the city – initially as a settlement complex located on the neighbouring hills – was associated with the travel and trade routes of supra-regional importance crossing the Lublin region. The historical communication system is still visible in the urban structure of the city. The paper presents the most important transformations of the communication structure of the city of Lublin from the beginning of its existence to the 1920s. The next part will deal with issues from the years 1931-2016.

Abstract:

Pekanbaru City as a metropolitan city that continues to increase the population of the population, thus causing an increase in the amount of waste generated every day. This certainly requires the City Government of Pekanbaru especially Tampan district which has a very large area and a very large population in order to be able to manage the existing waste in this area. But in reality, this has not been done optimally. Sudjana (2004: 17) defines that management or management is the ability and special skills to do something good activities with others or through others in achieving organizational goals. This research aims to know and analyze the management of integrated waste processing, the inhibiting factor, and the integrated waste management in improving the right people economy in Kecamatan Tampan Pekanbaru City. The method of analysis used in this study is qualitative and quantitative. The result of this research is that integrated garbage management in improving people's economy in Kecamatan Tampan Pekanbaru has not been implemented maximally. This is due to factors of sources and types of waste, behavioral factors of society (social and cultural), institutional factors and facilities and infrastructure. So it is a very necessary application of integrated waste processing management in improving the society's economy in Tampan district of Pekanbaru city through the application of Community-based Processing.

Abstract:

This manuscript summarizes the process by which large trees are protected in Poland, how they gain protected status, and the use of acoustic tomography to assess the structural soundness of five individual trees. The authors discuss tree stressors and tree care options, and how the outcome of each assessment was used in the decision-making process. Moreover, the use of acoustic tomography as an assessment tool helps to gain public acceptance for the assessment. In sustainable development, there is talk of the conscious management of urban vegetation, and specifically tree populations in the city. In line with sustainable development, actions are taken to manage the existing natural resources, e.g., historic trees, properly. Thanks to using an acoustic tomograph, it is possible to diagnose old tree specimens, take care of the safety of people and property near the natural monument, and to test candidates for their eligibility as monuments. Thanks to the research presented, it was ordered that one poplar tree be left and observed in Lublin, that two linden trees be cut down in Sandomierz and Lublin, that arborist works consisting of lowering the height of a linden tree in Sandomierz be undertaken, and that monument protection be applied for an ash tree in Łęczna. A visual tree assessment (VTA) was the starting point for this research. Each of the trees could endanger the safety of site users, and the diagnostics performed using sound waves were crucial in assessing their health condition. Our results highlight that acoustic tomography is an essential diagnostic method applicable to trees belonging to cultural heritage, such as old trees, and is effective in preventive tree management through the monitoring of mid- to long-term changes in internal decay or cavities that are difficult to diagnose with the naked eye.

Abstract:

AbstractSharing economy is a very broad term, covering various areas and forms of human activity. It includes activities of individuals, social groups, and enterprises, as well as local and state authorities, which aim to enable, facilitate, or even organize the sharing of resources. Sharing economy has an increasing importance and is accompanied by large-scale changes of revolutionary character embodied in innovative thinking. In this paper, a multidimensional assessment of the sharing economy from the perspective of various groups of stakeholders is undertaken. In order to analyze this phenomenon in more depth, the analyzed field of sharing economy has been narrowed subjectively (to the sphere of operations of for-profit corporations from this sector) and territorially (to the area of cities, as special places attracting sharing economy start-ups). The analysis has found that although the idea of sharing creates new opportunities, it also causes new challenges for cities’ functioning and development, especially when considering the influence of large sharing economy companies on other stakeholders. The findings also show that not only does sharing economy have an uneven impact on the functioning of different cities but it also has heterogeneous consequences for different groups of stakeholders in the same city.

Abstract:

This paper analyzes the factors that influence poverty by using panel data from districts/cities in Jambi Province which are presented from 2010-2020. The results of the study used a fixed effect model approach which resulted in per capita expenditure and population which had a significant influence on the number of poor people in districts/cities in Jambi Province. Meanwhile, the variables of economic growth, human development index and labor force do not have a significant effect on poverty in districts/cities in the Jambi Province. Variable relationships are interrelated between districts/cities. The increase in poverty in Batanghari Regency is due to the relationship with the economic conditions of Jambi City with a strong category of 79.40 percent. The decrease in poverty in Bungo Regency is related to the condition of the Sarolangun Regency area with a large correlation of -67.90 percent with a strong category. The increase in poverty in Kerinci Regency is due to the regional linkage of Jambi City with a large correlation of 89.10 percent, a very strong relationship category. For Sungai Penuh City, the increase in poverty is due to the condition of the Jambi City area with a correlation of 65.40 percent in the strong category. For Merangin Regency, the increase in poverty is due to the relationship with regional conditions in Tebo Regency with a large correlation of 95.80 percent in a very strong category. The increase in poverty in Muaro Jambi Regency is related to regional conditions in Batanghari Regency with a large correlation of 72.60 percent in the strong category. The increase in poverty in Tanjabbar Regency is related to the condition of the Tebo Regency area with a correlation of 96.60 percent, the category is very strong. And for the increase in poverty in Tanjabtim Regency, it is related to the condition of the Tanjabbar Regency area with a large correlation of 84.90 percent, the category is very strong.

Abstract:

Various types of grapes (Large blue-red, large red, Sunder Khani, middle-sized green and small yellow) grapes were collected from the local fruits markets of Peshawar City and were analyzed for their physicochemical parameters. TSS value of the small yellow type was high (26.0). The difference of acids value, showing acids content of the grapes, was negligible at range of 6 to 7. Sugar ranged from 50 to 75% with the maximum amount seen in large blue red grapes. The berries contained considerable amount of moisture (75.43 to 92.34%). Na and K were also present in appreciable amounts. Na was high in Sunderkhani while K in large blue red types. Linoleic acid, was found the most abundant fatty acid profile ranging from 66.0 g/100 g of total fatty acids, in small yellow oil seed. Considerable amount of oleic acid was also present in all samples. The data showed that acidic pH; high acid value and inclusion of K; and moisture in high amounts made the grapes very attractive fruits that should be studied for other beneficial constituents.

Abstract:

SummaryThe strong association of very low birth weight (VLBW; <1500 g) with infant mortality is well known. There are no data related to VLBW trends in Brazil although findings from some large surveys carried out in small- and medium-sized cities have demonstrated an increase in low birth weight (LBW; <2500 g) rates over the last 30 years. The aim of this study was to evaluate the secular trend of VLBW in the city of Porto Alegre, a large city in a developed area in southern Brazil, and the potential determinants of this trend during the 1990s and early 2000s. This is a registry-based study. Data were obtained from birth certificates of all live births in the city from 1994 to 2005. The variables analysed were: VLBW as the dependent variable and maternal age and schooling, type of delivery, type of hospital, number of live births, gestational age, newborn gender and unemployment rate. The incidence ratio rate (IRR) using Poisson regression was calculated to identify possible trends in VLBW rates. Poisson regressions were performed in order to assess the influence of some independent variables on VLBW. A total of 257,740 singleton newborns were delivered in the city during the period, with a steady reduction in the total number of live births per year from 23,296 in 1994 to 18,325 in 2005. The results showed a small but significant increase in VLBW (p for trend=0.049). There was a significant trend towards adequacy for gestational age per birth weight, suggesting a reduction in rates of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) (p<0.001). The findings showed a significant increase of 1% per year in the probability of VLBW. The main risk factors were related to VLBW mothers with low levels of schooling, public hospitals and multiparity and nulliparity. After adjustment, nulliparity remained as a significant risk factor. The interaction between type of hospital and type of delivery indicated that the probability for VLBW was 3.6 times higher (p<0.001) among those born in public hospitals by Caesarean section than those born in private hospitals by vaginal delivery. The results show that southern Brazil is going through a demographic transition characterized by a significant decrease in number of live births associated with a small increase in VLBW rates, a decrease in IUGR rates and stabilization of LBW.

Abstract:

The development and research of Smart City Service Systems is a very important area for the future of mankind. The urbanization process imposes new criteria for qualitative and quantitative assessment of population well-being, which will involve processing a very large volume of information, organizing the data exchange and processing. This paper proposes a Multi-Agent Smart City Services system based on Spatial-Temporal logic. In order to optimize the criteria for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of services, the set of agents is divided into: the subset of agents that deliver services and the subset of service consumers agents. The system diagram, the synthesis of the agents, the operators of temporal and spatial logic was elaborated. The relationship between the subset of service delivery agents and the subset of agents of service consumers is determined by game theory models.

Abstract:

Two types of ambulances and a city bus were modeled in a wind tunnel for the minimum wind speed required to upset the stationary vehicles. The Type I ambulance was vulnerable to upset with wind speeds of 135 to 150 mph on the vehicle over wind angles of 40° to 145°. The Type II ambulance was vulnerable to upset with wind speeds of 140 to 170 mph over wind angles of 30° to 145°. The 40-passenger city bus was vulnerable to upset with wind speeds of 60 to 75 mph over wind angles of 35° to 145°. These results showed ambulances were more stable in high winds than common passenger vehicles, but the city bus was very vulnerable in high winds. Testing showed that moving ambulances can be driven at low speeds in minimal hurricane-force winds without exceeding the upset wind speeds on the vehicles. This information provides guidance for safe operation of these vehicles during high winds including hurricanes, thunderstorms, and extra-tropical cyclones.

Abstract:

Violence involving firearms in the USA is a very important problem. As a consequence, a large number of crimes of this type are recorded every year. However, the solutions proposed have not managed to reduce the number of this type of crime. One of the cities with a large number of violent crimes is New York City. The number of crimes is not homogeneous and depends on the district where they occur. This paper proposes to study the information about the crimes in which firearms are involved with the aim of characterizing the factors on which the occurrence of this type of crime depends, such as the levels of poverty and culture. Since the districts are not homogeneous, the information has been analyzed at the district level. For this, data from the open data portal of the city of New York have been used and machine-learning techniques have been used. The results have shown that the variables on which they depend are different in each district.

Abstract:

Abstract The insertion of a city bike that complements the public transport system in large agglomerations, and mainly in the most crowded city centers, seems to be a very good solution that can contribute to reducing air pollution and reducing noise levels. In many situations, bicycle transport can perfectly fill deficiencies in public transport, e.g. at night, on holidays and on days when buses run to a limited extent. The article presents the functioning of the city bike system in Lublin since 2014. The first part of this article presents basic data on the city bike system in Lublin together with a map of bicycle stations, followed by data on the number of rentals, rental time, number of bicycle users, etc. Selected user opinions obtained on the basis of the survey were also presented. Finally, based on the analysis, final conclusions were formulated. The city bike system is used by about 10% of the population of the city of Lublin.

Abstract:

Air Quality (AQ) is a very topical issue for many cities and has a direct impact on citizen health. The AQ of a large UK city is being investigated using low-cost Particulate Matter (PM) sensors, and the results obtained by these sensors have been compared with government operated AQ stations. In the first pilot deployment, six AQ Internet of Things (IoT) devices have been designed and built, each with four different low-cost PM sensors, and they have been deployed at two locations within the city. These devices are equipped with LoRaWAN wireless network transceivers to test city scale Low-Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) coverage. The study concludes that (i) the physical device developed can operate at a city scale; (ii) some low-cost PM sensors are viable for monitoring AQ and for detecting PM trends; (iii) LoRaWAN is suitable for city scale sensor coverage where connectivity is an issue. Based on the findings from this first pilot project, a larger LoRaWAN enabled AQ sensor network is being deployed across the city of Southampton in the UK.

We have worked on this problem within a project for assessing the air quality in the city of Rome by placing a certain number of sensors on some of the city buses. We cast the problem as a facility location model. By reducing the large number of data variables and constraints, we were able to solve to optimality the resulting MILP model within minutes. Furthermore, we designed a genetic algorithm whose solutions were on average very close to the optimal ones. In our computational experiments we studied the placement of sensors on 187 candidate bus routes. We considered the coverage provided by 10 up to 60 sensors.

Abstract:

Abstract In this article, we present an observational investigation of ground motion at Mexico City focused on surface waves. Our purpose is 2-fold; first, to understand incident ground motion during the great Michoacán earthquake of 19 September 1985, and second, to characterize surface waves propagating in the lake-bed zone. To this end we analyze the strong-motion records obtained at Mexico City for the large (MS = 8.1) earthquake of 19 September 1985. It is shown that, in the low-frequency range, we observe the Rayleigh fundamental mode in both the vertical and the radial components, and the Love fundamental mode in the transverse component at all the strong-motion stations. The vertical component also shows the first higher mode of Rayleigh waves. We use a very broadband record obtained at station CU for the smaller (MS = 6.7) earthquake of 14 May 1993 to verify that the dispersion computed from the model of Campillo et al. (1989) represents well the average surface-wave propagation between the coast and Mexico City in the 7- to 10-sec period range. We use this result to assign absolute times to the strong-motion records of the Michoacán event. This allowed us to identify additional wave trains that propagate laterally in directions other than great circle in the 3- to 5-sec period range. These wave trains are identified as Love waves. In a second analysis, we study a set of refraction data obtained during a small-scale (250 m) experiment on the virgin clay of the lake-bed zone. Phase-velocity dispersion curves for several modes of Rayleigh waves are identified in the refraction data and inverted to obtain an S-wave velocity profile. This profile is used as the uppermost layering in a 2D model of Mexico City valley. The results of numerical simulation show that surface waves generated by lateral finiteness of the clay layer suffer large dispersion and attenuation. We conclude that surface waves generated by the lateral heterogeneity of the upper-most stratigraphy very significantly affect ground motion near the edge of the valley, but their importance is negligible for distances larger than 1.5 km from the edge. Thus, locally generated surface waves propagating through the clay layer cannot explain late arrivals observed for the 1985 event. We suggest that the long duration of strong motion is due to the interaction between lateral propagation of waves guided by deep layers (1 to 4 km) and the surficial clay layer. This interaction is possible by the coincidence of the dominant frequency of the uppermost layers and the frequency of the deeply guided waves.

Abstract:

The linear, large-scale and small-scale amplification effects in the Mexico City valley, related to both the surficial clay layer and the underlying thick sediments, are investigated with two-dimensional (2D) models and compared with the results of simple one-dimensional (1D) models. The deep sediments are shown to be responsible, on their own, for an amplification ranging between 3 and 7, a part of which is due to the 2D effects in case of low damping and velocity gradient. This result is consistent with the observed relative amplification around 0.5 Hz at CU stations with respect to TACY station. The amplification due to the clay layer is much larger (above 10), and the corresponding 2D effects have very peculiar characteristics. On the one hand, the local surface waves generated on any lateral heterogeneity exhibit a strong spatial decay, even in case of low damping (2%), and the motion at a given site is therefore affected only by lateral heterogeneities lying within a radius smaller than 1 km. On the other hand, these local 2D effects may be extremely large, either on the very edges of the lake-bed zone, or over localized thicker areas, where they induce a duration increase and an overamplification. The main engineering consequences of these results are twofold: i) microzoning studies in Mexico City should take into account the effects of deep sediments, and ii) as the surface motion in the lake-bed zone is extremely sensitive to local heterogeneities, 1D models are probably inappropriate in many parts of Mexico City.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to analyze the urban land use changes occurred in the central part of Ulaanbaatar, the capital city of Mongolia, from 1930 to 2008 with a 10-year interval using geographical information system (GIS) and very high-resolution remote sensing (RS) data sets. As data sources, a large-scale topographic map, panchromatic and multispectral Quickbird images, and TerraSAR synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data are used. The primary urban land use database is developed using the topographic map of the study area and historical data about buildings. To extract updated land use information from the RS images, Quickbird and TerraSAR images are fused. For the fusion, ordinary and special image fusion techniques are used and the results are compared. For the final land use change analysis and RS image processing, ArcGIS and Erdas imagine systems installed in a PC environment are used. Overall, the study demonstrates that within the last few decades the central part of Ulaanbaatar city is urbanized very rapidly and became very dense.

Abstract:

This paper examines the changes in the ways in which villagers have gained access to resources and services over time in what are now “villages in the city” within the city of Guangzhou. It compares and contrasts three periods: the clan-based traditional villages, the commune period and the period since the 1980s (which includes great economic success in many villages). It also discusses how migrants fit within this, as they have come to form a very large part of the population in these “villages in the city” but are largely excluded from state provision and from the benefits accruing to “villagership”.

Abstract:

The large population of the Japanese in Ho Chi Minh City has a significant impact on many aspects of the City’s development. To attract more Japanese people and their investment, it is very important to understand their adaptation to the living environment in this City. This paper studies how the Japanese have adapted to the natural condition such as weather and climate, and to the Vietnamese culture such as behaviors in public places as well as the advantages and disadvantages that affect this process. A classification of these adaptations is also discussed.
