商品描述
Urban Observation and Social Sensing helps readers see cities in a way they have seldom imagined before. Advanced technologies such as satellites in space, near surface drones, or even smartphones, can be used to explain how a city functions, or why certain areas are more populated than others. It examines the science of capturing city images and information gathered from above the ground combined with the information from social media and mobile data on the ground, and how to make sense of it all. From planning better neighborhoods to understanding how city life affects health, this book is a guide to the future of urban living and the technologies that help navigate it.
Features
- Covers a broad spectrum of urban observation methods in one resource to ensure a thorough understanding of diverse data collection methods.
- Provides a unique emphasis on social sensing to enable a more holistic and human-centric view of urban landscapes.
- Includes practical applications to showcase how the data and methodologies can be used in real-world scenarios.
- Explains the current technologies and methodologies but also offers insights into the future trajectory of urban science.
- Integrates technological advances with informed urban planning and real-time insights to elucidate a holistic understanding of urban spaces.
This is an excellent, insightful resource for researchers, academics, students, and professionals in remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems, urban planning and design, data science, geography, earth science, and those interested in the future of urban living and planning.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
《城市觀察與社會感知》幫助讀者以一種前所未有的方式看待城市。先進的技術，如太空中的衛星、近地表的無人機，甚至智能手機，都可以用來解釋城市的運作方式，或為什麼某些區域的人口密度高於其他區域。這本書探討了如何從空中捕捉城市影像和信息，並結合來自社交媒體和地面移動數據的信息，並解釋如何理解這一切。從規劃更好的社區到理解城市生活如何影響健康，這本書是未來城市生活及其導航技術的指南。
特色
- 涵蓋廣泛的城市觀察方法，確保對多樣數據收集方法的全面理解。
- 獨特強調社會感知，以便對城市景觀提供更全面和以人為本的視角。
- 包含實際應用，展示數據和方法論如何在現實場景中使用。
- 解釋當前的技術和方法論，並提供對城市科學未來發展的見解。
- 將技術進步與知情的城市規劃和實時見解相結合，以闡明對城市空間的整體理解。
這是一本出色且富有洞察力的資源，適合從事遙感、地理信息系統、城市規劃與設計、數據科學、地理學、地球科學的研究人員、學者、學生和專業人士，以及對未來城市生活和規劃感興趣的人士。
作者簡介
Dr. Bin Chen is an Associate Professor, Director of Future Urbanity & Sustainable Environment (FUSE) Lab at The University of Hong Kong. He obtained his BSc in Geographical Information Systems from Wuhan University, and his PhD in Global Environmental Change from Beijing Normal University. Before joining the University of Hong Kong in 2021, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Davis.
Dr. Chen's research leverages geospatial big data, data-model fusion, and advanced interdisciplinary approaches to investigate the interaction loops between environmental change, human activities, and public health. Specifically, his major research includes the remote sensing of built and natural environmental changes; modelling of human-environment spatiotemporal interaction; and impact of environment and human activities on public health. He has published over 80 refereed publications in top academic journals. His achievements have received international recognition, including Geospatial World 50 Rising Stars (2024) and receiving the International Society of Digital Earth Young Scientist Award, American Association of Geographers Early Career Award in Remote Sensing, and HKU-100 Scholars Award and Outstanding Young Researcher Award.
