Three-dimensional land-use configuration and property prices: A spatially filtered multi-level modelling perspective

Part Iv: Modelling Land Prices and Land-use Transitions

Modelling and Understanding Multi-temporal Land Use Changes

Understanding temporal urban growth is very crucial to the interpretation of urban morphology and a key challenge for the study of rapid urbanization in contemporary China. Previous land use change modelling approaches only consider the spatial complexity that may be indicated by spatial dependence and landscape fragmentation, ignoring the temporal complexity inherent in the process of urban gr...

Spatially Enabling Risk for Management of Land and Property

Recent natural disasters such as earthquakes, flood, and fire, and other issues such as asbestos, pests, and fraud all highlight the spatial nature of risk and the relationship between place and risk. These examples show that location is a major factor in determining what or where is at risk and how to manage that risk. In this paper the term risk refers to hazards and threats that exist that h...

A three-dimensional perspective

and report changes that occur in their populations, especially in those countries where acute myocardial infarction and coronary mortality remain high, even increasing in some instances. The documentation of changes that have occurred in Finland and the development of programmes addressing the public health problem of heart disease provide a very useful model for other countries to follow. Unde...

Property Tax Policy and Land-Use Change

In this study, we analyze the effect of property taxes on changes between agricultural, forestry, Conservation Reserve Program, and developed land uses in Louisiana. We estimate a random parameters logit model of land-use conversion from the National Resources Inventory plot data. Our results indicate that land-use changes are inelastic with respect to property taxes. Simulation shows that curr...
