theoretical review of ‘mining pit lakes’ indicates that like natural lakes such lakes display a huge diversity. they are typically in a non-equilibrium state with respect to their surroundings. hence, at the decommissioning phase of mining operation a detailed technical study are required on different aspects of such created water bodies considering its morphometry, geology, hydrology, water qu...

Urban planning is a knowledge-intensive activity. It acquires useful knowledge by analysing jointly socio-economic data and topographic maps. When supported by computers, this preliminary information gathering triggers a knowledge discovery process, which often consists of exploratory data analysis tasks. Advances in georeferencing have caused among the other things a growing demand for more po...

In large urban areas, smooth running public transit networks are key to viable development. Currently, economic and environmental issues are fueling the need for these networks to adequately serve travel demand, thereby increasing their competitiveness and their market share. Better balance between transit supply and demand will also help reduce and control operating costs. The fact is, however...
