A GloVe Model for Urban Functional Area Identification Considering Nonlinear Spatial Relationships between Points of Interest

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2022
As cities continue to grow, the functions of urban areas change and problems arise from previously constructed urban planning schemes. Hence, the actual distribution of urban functional areas needs to be confirmed.

Urban heat island mitigation by green infrastructure in European Functional Urban Areas

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2022
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect is one of the most harmful environmental hazards for urban dwellers. Climate change is expected to increase the intensity of the UHI effect. In this context, the implementation of Urban Green Infrastructure (UGI) can partially reduce UHI intensity, promoting a resilient urban environment and contributing to climate ...
