Urban Morphology and computers
Urban Morphology, 1997The use of image processing and GIS in urban morphology research in the Department of Art and Architectural History in Groningen University is described. Attention is focused on a research project on the development of the town plan of the city of Groningen since the early seventeenth century. The potential of the computer is demonstrated, not only for

MORPHOLOGY OF INDIA'S URBANIZATION
The Developing Economies, 1996"This paper is aimed at presenting the salient features of the morphology of India's urbanization paying due attention to interstate variations. We will find a lot of variations among the states in terms of their basic indices of urbanization. There are six sections in this paper. Section II deals with how to define an urban area.

The effect of spatial heterogeneity in urban morphology on surface urban heat islands
, 2021The effects of urban morphology on urban climates have been investigated mainly in terms of average urban spatial characteristics represented by the mean values of urban spatial variables, such as average building height of an urban area of interest ...

Urban Convergence: Morphology and Attraction [PDF]
Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 1996 A model, based on detailed descriptions of spatial configuration and a probabilistic approach to the user's choice, is proposed to measure the relationship between demand and supply locations in urban local systems. According to this model, the articulation of the public space grid, associated to the uneven distribution of facilities, generates a ...

Urban morphology is the study of urban forms and of the agents and processes responsible for their transformation over time. Urban form refers to the main physical elements that structure and shape the city including streets, squares (the public space), street blocks, plots, and buildings, to name the most important.

Urban Morphology Extractor: A spatial tool for characterizing urban morphology
Urban Climate, 2018Abstract Urban climate studies crucially depend on various urban morphological parameters. The availability of these parameters assists in understanding wind flow inside urban areas, Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon and also aids in estimation of anthropogenic heat in Numerical Weather Prediction models for improved forecast.

Urban morphology in China: Dataset development and spatial pattern characterization
, 2021Characterizing urban morphology is critical for urban climate examination and modeling. However, high-resolution urban morphological datasets are lacking, especially in Chinese cities that undergoing fast-urbanization.
