Simulating urban growth by integrating landscape expansion index (LEI) and cellular automata
2013
International Journal of Geographical Information Science
This paper proposed a novel model called LEI-CA which incorporates landscape expansion index (LEI) with CA to simulate urban growth. ...
Our experiments illustrate that the LEI-CA model not only overcomes the deficiencies of traditional CA but might also better understand urban evolution process. ...

Identifying the Social Urban Spatial Structure of Vulnerability: Towards Climate Change Equity in Bogotá
2021
Urban Planning
Consequently, the question arises as to how the urban spatial structure and organization contribute to an inclusive and equitable socio-spatial evolution, considering climate change impacts. ...
We propose a methodological approach of analysing spatial syntax and the (social) intensity of activities and infrastructure, which enables us to characterize the urban structure itself and identify vulnerable ...
