The current climate change is calling for drastic reduction of energy demand as well as of greenhouse gases. Besides this, cities also need to adapt to face the challenges related to climate change. Cities, with their complex urban texture…
Geosystems are geological formations altered by humans activities such as fossil energy exploration, waste disposal, geologic carbon sequestration, and renewable energy generation. Geosystems also represent a critical link in the global…
Cities play a pivotal role in human development and sustainability, yet studying them presents significant challenges due to the vast scale and complexity of spatial-temporal data. One such challenge is the need to uncover universal urban…
e-Infrastructures have powered the successful penetration of e-services across domains, and form the backbone of the modern computing landscape. e-Infrastructure is a broad term used for large, medium and small scale computing environments.…
Ancient Romans called 'urbs' the set of buildings and infrastructures, and 'civitas' the Roman citizens. Today instead, while the society is surfing the digital tsunami, 'urbs' and 'civitas' tend to become much closer, almost merging, that…
Urban regions are complicated functional systems that are closely associated with and reshaped by human activities. The propagation of online geographic information-sharing platforms and mobile devices equipped with Global Positioning…
The Global Positioning System (GPS) has become a part of our daily life with the primary goal of providing geopositioning service. For an unmanned aerial system (UAS), geolocalization ability is an extremely important necessity which is…
