Yet, we know very little about the development of building density and building height over time. In this study, we characterize the horizontal and vertical patterns of urban development in Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, and Zaragoza between 1965 and 2015. Our analysis is based on a unique combination of cadastral data and LiDAR point clouds, which we use to characterize building footprint, height, and volume, at decadal intervals. Subsequently, we characterize urban expansion and densification processes using building volume and Urban Form Types. We find that height of new buildings shows a significant downward trend during the 70′s for the four urban areas and a decreasing trend after the 2008 real estate bubble for the cases of Barcelona and Valencia. Over the analyzed period a decrease of 116, 313, 217 and 157 cm in average building height was observed for Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, and Zaragoza, respectively. Urbanized volume of all cities together has expanded by roughly 350% between 1950 and 2015. Sparse built-up form showed the largest absolute increase, although it contains only a low fraction of new built-up volume. A clear trend towards expansion is observed in city outskirts and the development of new urban clusters in municipalities closer to the main city. At the same time, settlements have followed incremental steps towards densification of the city-cores over time. This study provides a first step towards comprehensive understanding of long-term changes in 3D urban form, which can inform the development of policies that target the third dimension in urban form to steer sustainable urban growth.

Yet, less optimal fixed-width approach is still largely used, likely because of its simple design and implementation. We examined the efficiency of varying-width buffer zones based on depth-to-water (DTW) index in protecting stream riparian plant communities. We further compared the economic costs of DTW-based buffer to commonly used 5, 10 and 15 m fixed-width buffers. We also included an additional buffer based on a combination of DTW and erosion risk (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation, RUSLE) into these comparisons to see the extent and cost of a buffer that should maximize the protection of the linked aquatic environment. Plant species richness increased with increasing soil moisture and species preferring moist conditions, nutrient-rich soils and high pH were clearly more abundant adjacent to stream in areas with high predicted soil moisture than in dry areas. Differences in species richness were paralleled by differences in community composition and higher beta diversity of plant communities in wet than in dry riparian areas. There were also several indicator species typical for moist and nutrient-rich soils for wet riparian areas. Riparian buffer zones based on DTW were on average larger than 15 m wide fixed-width buffers. However, the cost for DTW-based buffer was lower than for fixed-width buffer zones when the cost was normalized by area. Simulated selective cutting decreased the costs, but cutting possibilities were variable among streams and depended on the characteristics of forest stands. Our results thus suggest a high potential of DTW in predicting wet areas and variable-width buffer zones based on these areas in the protection of riparian biodiversity and stream ecosystems.

How to optimize the 2D/3D urban thermal environment: Insights derived from UAV LiDAR/multispectral data and multi-source remote sensing data / Rongfang Lyu in Sustainable Cities and Society, vol 88 (January 2023)  

Public [article]  inSustainable Cities and Society > vol 88 (January 2023) . - n° 104287 Titre : How to optimize the 2D/3D urban thermal environment: Insights derived from UAV LiDAR/multispectral data and multi-source remote sensing data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Rongfang Lyu, Auteur ; Jili Pang, Auteur ; Xiaolei Tian, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : n° 104287 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de télédétection [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] données lidar [Termes IGN] espace vert [Termes IGN] hauteur du bâti [Termes IGN] ilot thermique urbain [Termes IGN] image captée par drone [Termes IGN] image Landsat-OLI [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-MSI [Termes IGN] Leaf Area Index [Termes IGN] Normalized Difference Vegetation Index [Termes IGN] paysage urbain [Termes IGN] plan d'eau [Termes IGN] planification urbaine [Termes IGN] réseau bayesien [Termes IGN] semis de points [Termes IGN] température au sol Résumé : (auteur) The systematical exploration of how two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) features of urban landscapes influence land surface temperature (LST) is still limited. Therefore, we investigated the influence of three main urban landscapes—urban green space, impervious land, and water bodies on LST, with a particular focus on the 3D vegetation metrics of green volume (GV) and leaf area index (LAI). We used Yinchuan City, China, as a case study. We quantified the impacts of various 2D/3D metrics of the three landscape types on LST using a random forest analysis with multiple sources, including Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and remote sensing images. We then generated a Bayesian Network (BN) model to identify the optimal configurations for each landscape type. We found that using 11 of the 31 metrics considered, our model could explain 81.8% of the observed variance in LST of Yinchuan City. Among those, water body metrics were the most important, followed by vegetation abundance, impervious land metrics, and landscape pattern of urban green space. The mean classification error of the BN model was only 22.9%. We suggest that this makes the BN model a promising support tool for urban planning with a view to urban heat island mitigation. Our findings also stress the importance of considering both 2D and 3D features when considering urban cooling strategies.

Improving generalized models of forest structure in complex forest types using area- and voxel-based approaches from lidar / Andrew W. Whelan in Remote sensing of environment, vol 284 (January 2023)

Many lidar models have been based on metrics derived from summarizations of individual lidar returns over sample plot areas, but more recently, metrics based on summarization by volumetric pixel (voxel) have shown promise to better characterize forest structure and distinguish between diverse forest types. Voxel-based metrics may improve characterization of leaf area distribution and horizontal forest structure, which could help create general models of forest attributes applicable in complex landscapes composed of many distinct forest types. We modeled wood volume in longleaf pine woodlands and associated forests to compare how area- and voxel- based lidar metrics predicted wood volume in forest type specific and general predictive models. We created four area-based and six voxel-based metrics to fit models of wood volume using a multiplicative power function. We selected models and compared metric importance using AIC and evaluated model performance using cross-validated mean prediction error. We found that one area-based metric and four voxel-based metrics consistently improved model predictions We suggest that area-based metrics alone may have limitations for characterizing complex forest structure. Area-based summarizes of lidar returns are more heavily influenced by upper canopy returns because lidar returns attenuate below the canopy. By contrast, summarizing lidar returns into a single value per voxel prior to summarization over plots homogenizes point density, giving added weight to sub-canopy returns. Thus voxel-based metrics may be more sensitive to structural variation that may not be adequately captured by area-based metrics alone. This study highlights the potential of voxel-based metrics for characterizing complex forest structure and model generalization capable of accurate forest attribute prediction across diverse forest types.

Remote sensing techniques allow to obtain geospatial data, also for the forestry sector. As one of the remote-sensed technologies datasets, Terrestrial Laser Scanning data is widely used to derive detailed information about tree and forest stand parameters. This article presents the combination of circular Hough transform, denoising procedure, and robust least-square circle fitting method to extract stem positions from Terrestrial Laser Scanning data. In the proposed approach, initial tree stems position was detected with circular Hough transform. Then, obtained results were denoised to exclude most non-tree trunk points and analyze three-dimensional data from laser scanning to find exact circular tree stems with a robust least-square circle fitting method. The developed algorithm is effective in obtaining the trees’ geodetic positions from laser scanning data. The results generated in this study can be used as basics for further automatic determination of tree characteristics, such as tree species, height, or crown range. In this study, 94.8% tree stems delineation was generated with a mean accuracy of 87.2%, 1.64 cm of root mean square error for stem position, and 1.15 cm for tree radius measured at ground level. The process conducted in this research can be used to detect other circle-shaped objects, such as lamps or power towers, for which obtaining dense Terrestrial Laser Scanning data is available. The detected positions of these objects can power the geographic information systems or thematic industry systems, where it is necessary to determine the geodetic object position results from legal regulations.
