Cartography III

open access: yesProgress in Human Geography, 2014
In this third report, I focus on cognitive cartography in order to examine how the historical division between empiricist and critical approaches in cartography has shifted recently. I do so by building on Kitchin and Dodge’s argument (2007) that parts of the apparent disjuncture within cartography might be resolved through a greater focus on emergent ...

CAPITALIZING CRISIS: Urban Extractivism in Athens Amidst Neoliberal Restructurings

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article we examine the post‐2009 transformation of Athens through the analytical lens of urban extractivism.

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Ongoing urbanization has driven the development of Urban Digital Twins (UDTs) as virtual replicas of cities integrating heterogeneous data sources. While voxel-based UDTs have emerged as a promising framework for real-time applications, dense urban ...

GROWING GREEN IN US SUBURBIA: Property Value, Race and Domestic Landscaping Aesthetics in Mid‐Century America

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Much of the current popular and academic literature on the provision of green spaces is dominated by the assumption that ‘nature’ is an unalloyed positive, and that socioeconomic and racial exclusion from access to green spaces is a problem of unequal spatial distribution rather than of the form and content of particular urban designs.

GOVERNING INFORMALITY: Eviction, Recognition, and Legal Ambiguity in Kampung Akuarium, Jakarta

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Informal settlements in Jakarta have long been governed through cycles of tolerance, eviction, and selective recognition. Rather than resulting from the absence of planning, informality is often produced through spatial regulations, legal ambiguity, and political intervention.

STRATIFIED ADAPTATION: Infrastructure, Elevation, and Cascading Floods in the Urban Mekong Delta

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Flood‐prone cities in the global South are increasingly the target of infrastructure projects aimed at building climate ‘resilience’. At the same time, residents of these cities take adaptation to flooding into their own hands. In this article we examine the interrelationship between household‐scale and urban‐scale flood mitigation projects in
