Identifying Urban Functional Areas and Their Dynamic Changes in Beijing: Using Multiyear Transit Smart Card Data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Urban Planning and Development Division, ASCE, 2021
A growing number of megacities have been experiencing changes to their landscape due to rapid urbanisation trajectories and travel behaviour dynamics. Therefore, it is of great significance to investigate the distribution and evolution of a city’s urban ...

Identifying Urban Functional Areas in China’s Changchun City from Sentinel-2 Images and Social Sensing Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The urban functional area is critical to an understanding of the complex urban system, resource allocation, and management. However, due to urban surveys’ focus on geographic objects and the mixture of urban space, it is difficult to obtain such ...

Functional Urban Areas in Colombia

OECD Regional Development Working Papers, 2016
This paper applies the OECD-EU methodology to identify the functional urban areas (FUAs) in Colombia. Using the municipal boundaries, population grid data and inter-municipalities commuting flows from the 2005 population census, the paper identifies 53 FUAs accounting for 27 million people, or 63% of the national population. The resulting FUAs are then

FUNCTIONAL BARRIERS IN IASI URBAN AREA [PDF]

open access: possibleTheoretical and Empirical Researches in Urban Management, 2011
The forced industrialisation of cities resulted in the construction of giant sites in outlying areas. December 1989 triggered the decline of industrial activities, wich could not be sustained any longer. Gradually, industrial halls have been abandoned, turning into ghosts of past glory, „black spots” that visually pollute the city’s image.

Population Growth in Functional Urban Areas

2019
This chapter presents an analysis of population change of FUAs in Poland against other municipalities. It analyses differences in population growth or decline between city cores and commuting zones of FUAs. In addition, the study shows trends in population change by size and location of FUAs.

The Urban Hierarchy and Urban Area Production Function: A Synthesis

Urban Studies, 1977
Urban production functions, often used to indicate optimal city size, usually deal with one city in isolation. This paper introduces differing production and transport costs and demand intensities in order to generate an urban hierarchy of differing urban sizes and market areas.

Changes in Migrations in Functional Urban Areas

2019
The chapter will analyse the changes in the intensity and directions of migration in FUAs in the years 1990–2016. More specifically, the directions of population migration from and to the cores/commuting zones according to the size of FUAs will be explored (including total and subperiods).

Functional Urban Areas—Theoretical Background

2019
This chapter explores the theoretical insight behind the concept of functional regions as areas that integrate cities into their immediate hinterland. The literature on urban development from a demographic context will also be explored, including a wide ranging literature overview on population processes, namely the second demographic transition and ...
