The book also presents analytic studies using metric geometrical, topological (or network), and fractal measures of these maps. These analytic studies identify ordinaries, extremes, similarities, and differences in these maps; investigate the scaling properties of these maps; and develop precise descriptive categories, types and indicators for multidimensional comparative studies of these maps. The findings of these studies indicate that many geometric relations of the urban layouts of downtown areas follow regular patterns; that despite social, economic, and cultural differences among cities, the geometric measures of downtown areas in cities of developed and developing countries do not show significant differences; and that the geometric possibilities of urban layouts are vastly greater than those that have been realized so far in our cities. | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 关键词 | Urban Configurational Studies; Urban Form and Structure; Urban Geographical Studies; Urban Geometry; Urb | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-30750-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-80881-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-30750-3 | | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2017 |
