Dynamics of the urban lightscape
2015
Information Systems
Here we quantify the dynamics of an urban lightscape through the novel modality of persistent synoptic observations from an urban vantage point. ...
The manifest importance of cities and the advent of novel data about them are stimulating interest in both basic and applied "urban science" (Bettencourt et al., 2007 [4]; Bettencourt, 2013 [3]). ...

The Effect of Soundscapes and Lightscapes on the Perception of Safety and Social Presence Analyzed in a Laboratory Experiment
2019
Sustainability
A two-way repeated measures ANOVA analysis was conducted to assess the effect of modifications of both the soundscape and lightscape on the two components. ...
The present study evaluates the effect of soundscape and lightscape variations on the perceived safety and perceived social presence in a pedestrian area through laboratory experiments. ...
In order to allow for the evaluation of both aspects and to assess the combination of different possible soundscape and lightscape scenarios on the same urban environment, laboratory tests on simulated ...
