A rural built-up area is one of the most important features regions. Rapid and accurate extraction areas has great significance to planning urbanization. In this paper, spectral residual method embedded into a deep neural network accurately describe from large-scale satellite images. Our proposed composed two processes: coarse localization fine extraction. Firstly, an improved Faster R-CNN (Reg...

Exploring the coordinated relationship between built-up area expansion and population growth in urbanization process is important for planning sustainable development of cities. The article took Shandong Peninsula urban agglomeration as study area, which was divided into Provincial Capital Economic Circle, Jiaodong Lunan Circle according to plan named Implementation Plan Implementing Opinions C...

Land use/land cover (LU/LC) changes were determined in an urban area, Tirupati, from 1976 to 2003 by using Geographical Information Systems (GISs) and remote sensing technology. These studies were employed by using the Survey of India topographic map 57 O/6 and the remote sensing data of LISS III and PAN of IRS ID of 2003. The study area was classified into eight categories on the basis of fiel...

Ahmad, Shaikh.M.S.C.E.,Purdue University, December 2014.Capacity-Related Driver Behavior on Modern Roundabouts Built on High-Speed Roads. Major Professor: Andrew Tarko. The objective of this thesis was to investigate the factors that affect capacity-related driver behavior on modern roundabouts built on high-speed roads. The capacity of roundabouts is strongly affected by the behavior of driver...

Within-class spectral variation and between-class spectral confusion in remotely sensed imagery degrades the performance of built-up area detection when using planar texture, shape, and spectral features. Terrain slopes and building heights extracted from auxiliary data, such as Digital Surface Models (DSMs) however, can improve the results. Stereo imagery incorporates height information unlike...
