Aim & Scope:
The process of urbanization is accompanied by the expansion of urban area. Big Earth data, such as remote sensing data, has played an important role in monitoring the dynamic changes of urban land use due to its advantages of uninterrupted, objective, and all-round observation. In-depth mining and analysis of urban spatial big data is of great significance for understanding urban land dynamics, and making suggestions for urban planning and governance decisions. This special session aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders to share their experiences and discuss the latest advancements, applications, and challenges in urban land dynamics.
Possible topics:
- Advanced classification techniques of urban land use and land cover
- Spatio-temporal dynamics of urban growth.
- Urban land cover and land use change detection.
- Time-series urban land cover change detection.
- Big Earth data system for urban land dynamics monitoring.
