Digital Urban Management has become a trend in the development of contemporary cities. This paper presents the design and implementation of an intelligent flood control decision support system (IFCDSS) using statistical analysis to determine the relationship between the data, and integrate data mining technology for digital urban management based on Java EE. The system also provides location-ba...

A survey of the microbiological and chemical quality of water supplies in the Bindura urban and peri-urban area was carried out over a three year period from January 2000 to July 2003. Bindura is the provincial city of Mashonaland Central, situated 88 km from the national capital, Harare. Large-scale farming and mining activities in the area predispose water bodies to eutrophication and chemica...

The goal of this research is to develop a tool that employs intelligent technologies to capture the patterns of urban change driven by a diverse set of context factors. Data mining provides opportunities, which complement and extend the knowledge previously obtained with other approaches. A series of exploratory case studies are in place to investigate the modeling and predictive capabilities o...

The increasing consumption of natural resources for road construction and generation urban waste materials are two global ecological problems. Urban mining aims to convert into raw industrial production, as a result, address both problems simultaneously. This study explores the potential asphalt pavement surface courses. In first part, each country/region has its unique challenge with materials...
