Cartographic Analysis in Urban Morphology [PDF]

Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2009
This paper explores the potential of geographic information systems (GIS) in the study of urban historic cartography. The first part of the paper focuses on three European schools of urban morphology, that have been using cartographic analysis in the study of the city, since the first half of the 20th century.
