City limits in the age of smartphones and urban scaling [PDF]

open access: yesComputers, Environment and Urban Systems (2020), 79: 101423, 2020
Urban planning still lacks appropriate standards to define city boundaries across urban systems. This issue has historically been left to administrative criteria, which can vary significantly across countries and political systems, hindering a comparative analysis across urban systems. However, the wide use of Information and Communication Technologies

Quantifying urban areas with multi-source data based on percolation theory [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing of Environment, (2020), 2019
Quantifying urban areas is crucial for addressing associated urban issues such as environmental and sustainable problems. Remote sensing data, especially the nighttime light images, have been widely used to delineate urbanized areas across the world. Meanwhile, some emerging urban data, such as volunteered geographical information (e.g., OpenStreetMap)
