Walkability in The Musamus University Campus Area

An Examination of Walkability in the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area

Campus : 3 D Modeling of York University Campus

The initial results of reconstructing York University’s 3D virtual model and future research directions are presented. The demand for 3D geospatial data and modeling for urban environments continuously increases as GIS models and applications are changing from traditional 2/2.5D to actual 3D spatial representations. The iCampus project is part of the celebration of the 50 anniversary of York Un...

Inventory of the Heteroptera (Insecta: Hemiptera) in Komaba Campus of the University of Tokyo, a highly urbanized area in Japan

BACKGROUND The Heteroptera, or true bugs, forms one of the major insect groups with respect to the very diverse habitat preferences, including both aquatic and terrestrial species, as well as a variety of feeding types. The first comprehensive inventory of the Heteroptera at Komaba Campus of the University of Tokyo, or an urban green space in the center of the Tokyo Metropolis, Japan, was condu...

Walkability around primary schools and area deprivation across Scotland

BACKGROUND A number of studies based in the US, Canada, and Australia, have found evidence of associations between the built environment (BE) and mode of transport to school, and links between active travel and deprivation. Limited research in the UK compares potential BE supports for walking to school by area deprivation. Within this study, we gathered data on BE attributes previously linked t...

Fauna of Cerambycidae (Insecta: Coleoptera) in Komaba Campus of the University of Tokyo, a highly urbanised area in Japan

Urban green spaces play an important role in maintaining urban biodiversity in the Tokyo Metropolis, Japan. Plant-dependent insect assemblages such as Cerambycidae, in particular, are likely influenced by the existence of green spaces in Tokyo's urbanised environments. This study is the first comprehensive inventory of the cerambycid fauna in the Komaba Campus of the University of Tokyo. A cera...
