Methods for monitoring the detection of multi-temporal land use change trhough the classification of urban areas

Urban areas are complicated due to the mix of man-made features and natural features. A higher level of structural information plays an important role in land cover/use classification of urban areas. Additional spatial indicators have to be extracted based on structural analysis in order to understand and identify spatial patterns or the spatial...

IMESH: Generating quality Meshes from images

Techniques devoted to generate a triangular mesh from images either take as starting point a segmented image or generate a mesh without distinguishing different structures contained in the image. The need for pre-segmentation and the absence of well defined structures may rule out the use of the resulting mesh in some applications, as numerical...

Bangkok living; social networks in a gated urban field
