The agglomeration and dispersion dichotomy of human settlements on Earth

1 code implementation11 Jun 2020 Emanuele Strano, Filippo Simini, Marco De Nadai, Thomas Esch, Mattia Marconcini

To explain the observed spatial patterns, we also propose a model that combines two agglomeration forces and simulates human settlements' historical growth.

Outlining where humans live -- The World Settlement Footprint 2015

1 code implementation28 Oct 2019 Mattia Marconcini, Annekatrin Metz-Marconcini, Soner Üreyen, Daniela Palacios-Lopez, Wiebke Hanke, Felix Bachofer, Julian Zeidler, Thomas Esch, Noel Gorelick, Ashwin Kakarla, Emanuele Strano

Human settlements are the cause and consequence of most environmental and societal changes on Earth; however, their location and extent is still under debate.

Spatial sensitivity analysis for urban land use prediction with physics-constrained conditional generative adversarial networks

no code implementations22 Jul 2019 Adrian Albert, Jasleen Kaur, Emanuele Strano, Marta Gonzalez

Accurately forecasting urban development and its environmental and climate impacts critically depends on realistic models of the spatial structure of the built environment, and of its dependence on key factors such as population and economic development.

Modeling urbanization patterns with generative adversarial networks

1 code implementation8 Jan 2018 Adrian Albert, Emanuele Strano, Jasleen Kaur, Marta Gonzalez

In this study we propose a new method to simulate hyper-realistic urban patterns using Generative Adversarial Networks trained with a global urban land-use inventory.
