6. Satellite Monitoring of Urbanization and Indicator-based Assessment of Environmental Impact
Abstract : As of 2018, 55% of the world population resides in urban areas. This proportion is projected to increase to 68% by 2050 (United Nations 2018). The Stockholm region is no exception to this urbanizing trend: the population of Stockholm City has risen by 28% since the year 2000. READ MORE

7. Spatial analysis and modeling of urban transportation networks
Abstract : Transport systems in general, and urban transportation systems in particular, are the backbone of a country or a city, therefore play an intrinsic role in the socio-economic development. There have been numerous studies on real transportation systems from multiple fileds, including geography, urban planning, and engineering. READ MORE

8. Contributions of Satellite Geodesy to Post-Glacial Rebound Research
Abstract : Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) is a global and long-term process in the Earth, which began 21.5 millennia ago, according to many ice history modellers. One way to understand the processes of the Earth’s interior, the crustal deformation, and a key correction to estimate the climatological parameters is obtained by studying GIA. READ MORE

9. Connecting digital and physical representations through semantics and geometry
Abstract : The fields of geodesy and building information modeling (BIM) meet each other in the intersection between the physical and the digital world. Within the construction industry, the role of geodesy has typically been to describe the position of assets and to transform the geometries of those assets between coordinate systems suitable for design and coordinate systems with a known relation to the Earth.

10. Remote Sensing of Urbanization and Environmental Impacts
Abstract : This thesis aims to establish analytical frameworks to map urban growth patterns with spaceborne remote sensing data and to evaluate environmental impacts through Landscape Metrics and Ecosystem Services. Urbanization patterns at regional scale were evaluated in China's largest urban agglomerations and at metropolitan scale in Shanghai, Stockholm and Beijing using medium resolution optical satellite data.
