Solving real planning problems requires to consider spatial and temporal information. Indeed, to be solved more efficiently many real world problems need to take the action duration, the instants of effects occurrences, the instants of requiring preconditions. . . and the space in which the mission is accomplished by defining the different actions zones and know the path between these zones int...

contemporary cities from many aspects have challenges with the phenomenon of injustice and in different areas suffer from the distribution of benefits, housing, and access to services. meanwhile, the spatial justice and related studies have raised in response to these issues as an emerging and interdisciplinary field. hence, justice has become a principal goal of urban planning in its instituti...

An operational spatial information infrastructure needs feasible spatial information exchange between different stakeholders. When building spatial information infrastructures at the international level interoperability between the national level and supra-national level data becomes particularly important. The paper presents a study analyzing spatial information interoperability in the field o...

Conservation areas are essential for preserving green spaces and biological diversity. Although previous studies have demonstrated that spatial optimization techniques effective balancing the relationship between ecological importance pattern during conservation practices, design of corridors still requires an efficient, intelligent, flexible workflow. In addition, functional connectivity infor...

tourism as a growing industry needs special attention in developing countries. during last decades, nature based tourism has been growing faster than other tourism fields and it seems to grow even faster. ever growing demand for nature based tourism emphasizes the necessity of a holistic planning for preserving environment against degradation. objective of this study is to present a nature base...

Uncertainty in spatial analysis and planning has conventionally been treated as a consequence of random occurrence of exact spatial events. The present paper, however, argues that fuzziness is actually a major contributory factor to most of the uncertain spatial behavior. Exactitude in representing, analyzing, and predicting human behaviors over space and time is difficult if not impossible to ...
