A methodology for determining the city's urban space population

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №2 (82) June, 2023

The article proposes a methodology for estimating population numbers based on data available from public information sources using an algorithm for processing and calculating geo-information remote sensing data, urban zoning, and demographic quantitative characteristics of the territory. The methodology provides detailed and accurate results. It is instrumental in conducting interdisciplinary studies in urbanized territories and serves as a basis for assessing the spatial and socio-economic development of urban and metropolitan areas.

A METHOD FOR DEFINING THE BOUNDARIES OF URBAN AND METROPOLITAN AREAS

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №4 (80) December, 2022

A method is proposed for defining the boundaries of urban systems and metropolitan areas based on urban development processes, such as transport accessibility, degree of anthropogenic impact, and spatial connectivity. Assessment of spatial development aspects makes it possible to establish the outer boundary of an agglomeration, reflecting the structure of the urbanized area. In urban systems, the zone of actual influence produced by the city’s central area on the suburbs and other urban objects is defined allowing for the existing administrative zoning. The results of the study may be used for improving the methodological framework of urban planning and balanced decision making.
