Time Series Analysis of Urban Liveability

Devis Tuia, Diego Marcos Gonzalez, Alex Hubertus Levering

In this paper we explore deep learning models to monitor longitudinal liveability changes in Dutch cities at the neighbourhood level. Our liveability reference data is defined by a country-wise yearly survey based on a set of indicators combined into a liv ...

Geoinformation Harvesting From Social Media Data: A community remote sensing approach

Devis Tuia, Alex Hubertus Levering

As unconventional sources of geoinformation, massive imagery and text messages from open platforms and social media form a temporally quasi-seamless, spatially multiperspective stream, but with unknown and diverse quality. Due to its complementarity to rem ...

On the relation between landscape beauty and land cover: A case study in the U.K. at Sentinel-2 resolution with interpretable AI

Devis Tuia, Alex Hubertus Levering

The environment where we live and recreate can have a significant effect on our well-being. More beautiful landscapes have considerable benefits to both health and quality of life. When we chose where to live or our next holiday destination, we do so accor ...

Liveability from Above: Understanding Quality of Life with Overhead Imagery and Deep Neural Networks

Devis Tuia, Alex Hubertus Levering

Urban planners are increasingly interested in understanding what makes a neighbourhood pleasant and liveable. In this paper, we use the overhead perspective as a new way to describe and understand liveability of city neighborhoods. We predict building qual ...

Cross-Modal Learning of Housing Quality in Amsterdam

Devis Tuia, Alex Hubertus Levering

In our research we test data and models for the recognition of housing quality in the city of Amsterdam from ground-level and aerial imagery. For ground-level images we compare Google StreetView (GSV) to Flickr images. Our results show that GSV predicts th ...
