This is a interdisciplinary research led by a photograph and a sociologist in order to observe the transformation of urban space in poor neighborhoods in Caracas ...
We analyze urban mobility by relying on the short-term mobility traces gathered from a publicly available web-based repository of GPS tracks - the Nokia Sports Tracker service. All mobility traces are obtained from a set of kml files. We show how the data ...
A link to a wide range of spatio-temporal practices, mobility is nowadays an important factor of social relations. If the spatio-temporal practices and mobility forms are not homogenous, how can we, however, describe them, qualify and make them more compre ...

In this paper, we show that a better performance can be achieved by training a keypoint detector to only find those points that are suitable to the needs of the given task. We demonstrate our approach in an urban environment, where the keypoint detector sh ...

The phenomenon of urban violence and the resulting sense of insecurity are at the very heart of contemporary urban dynamics. In order to respond to the growing public demand for security, various public, private, and community measures contribute to the ne ...
Urban sprawl, a solution to house fast-growing metropolitan populations, dilutes the substance of cities and generates extensive uniformly built fabrics lacking structural poles of attraction. Hong Kong is one of the seldom exceptions of this general tende ...
What are the impacts of a re-designed public transportation system in a city where social differences are heavily manifested in spatial separation, i.e. where exist certain inequalities concerning the access to daily activities and participation in urban l ...
In a globalized space where mobility is growing, the capacities of attraction of the city are becoming increasingly decisive. Between the cities, through its attractive quality and attraction capacity, the university will become a decisive factor of locati ...
The determination of the sensible heat flux over urban terrain is challenging due to irregular surface geometry and surface types. To address this, in 2006–07, a major field campaign (LUCE) took place at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne campus, ...
Present work intends to conceive an interface between Urban Morphology and Geographic Information Science (GISc). This interface is considered as a space of exchange for knowledge exploration between several disciplines. The links pointed out from this the ...
