Corresponding with urban land use plan and network design is helpful for the sustainable development of the city. Beginning with the traffic distribution decided by urban land use composition and floor area ratio (FAR), the bi-level programming model of urban land use and network design problem was put forward. In this model, the problem was described as the game, which the upper showed the policymaker's...
As a developing trend, it is more and more common to apply GIS onto the expansion of urban spatial so that the analysis of urban spatial gets great promotion. This article presents a real example of Ezhou city of Hubei province about its urban spatial expansion in the past 70 years. With geographic information systems, the quantity characteristics of land-use variation around urban built-up areas...
