Urban morphology is an overall form of urban spatial structure as an external outline shape of urban space. Study on the evolution of urban morphology and identification of its expansion direction is related to the sustainable development of urban spatial structure. So, it has been an important research field of urban planning subject. This paper analyzed the evolution of urban morphology and identification...
Based on the MSS datum in 1975 and Landsite TM datum in 1987, 1995, 2000 and 2005, monitored the land use change in the Reservoir Area of three Gorges was conducted with the support of several indexes to reflect the temporal-spatial changes during 30 years. The results as following, (1) The areas of cultivated land, forestry land, grass land decreased but the areas of construction land and water area...
Taking the Northern Slope of the Tianshan Mountains (NSTM) as the study area, we investigated into the oases LUCC and information entropy change by using RS, GIS and statistical model. The results showed that, (1) Establishing mathematical models of the range, speed and trend index of LUCC, especially the model of LUCC trend and state, the state and trend of oasis LUCC can be deeply researched. Meanwhile,...
Land use/cover change (LUCC) is a key aspect of global environment change and in a sense indicates the influence of human activities on natural environment. Regional case study is the core of LUCC research. Taking the Hotan river basin, an oasis area of the Tarim river origin basin, as an example, Supported by RS and GIS technology, this paper reconstructed LUCC patterns in three periods of 1960,...
In the past thousands of years, the Grand Canal not only promoted political, economic and cultural development in China, but also formed the pattern of cities which lie along the canal called ldquoCanal Citiesrdquo. To comprehend the relationship between the city and the canal can benefit the urban planning and development. Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System technology enable us to...
