  2. 1. Computational and Visual Tools for Geospatial Multi-Criteria Decision-Making

    Author : Goran Milutinovic; Stefan Seipel; Ulla Ahonen-Jonnarth; S. Anders Brandt; Gennady Andrienko; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; geographic information systems; multi-criteria decision-making; interactive visualization; even swaps; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development; Intelligent industri; Intelligent Industry;

    Abstract : Geospatial multi-criteria decision-making usually concerns quasi-continuous choice models, with the number of alternatives constrained only by the limits of the used representation model. This sets high demands on the decision-making methods used in the context. READ MORE

    Author : Karl Samuelsson; Stephan Barthel; S. Anders Brandt; Dagmar Haase; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; subjective well-being; affordances; social-ecological urbanism; urban resilience; geographic information system; depression; densification; complex adaptive system; spatial planning; green-blue infrastructure; subjektivt välbefinnande; affordance; social-ekologisk stadsbyggnad; urban resiliens; geografiska informationssystem; depression; förtätning; komplexa adaptiva system; grön infrastruktur; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the need for urban landscapes that provide resilient contributions to inhabitants’ well-being while also limiting impacts on the Earth system. It aims to (1) advance a nuanced understanding of how urban environments relate to urban dwellers’ well-being, and (2) formulate guidelines for planning that supports urban dwellers’ well-being and align with global sustainability.

  5. 3. Computational and spatial analyses of rooftops for urban solar energy planning

    Author : Mohammad Aslani; Stefan Seipel; S. Anders Brandt; Julia Åhlén; Alison Jane Heppenstall; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Machine learning; Classification; Segmentation; Support vector machines; Instance selection; Rooftop plane segmentation; Photovoltaic panels; Utiliz-able rooftop areas; Geoinformatics; maskininlärning; klassificering; segmentering; stödvektormaskiner; urval av träningsdata; segmentering av takytor; solcellspaneler; utnyttjande av takytor; geoinformatik; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : In cities where land availability is limited, rooftop photovoltaic panels (RPVs) offer high potential for satisfying concentrated urban energy demand by using only rooftop areas. However, accurate estimation of RPVs potential in relation to their spatial distribution is indispensable for successful energy planning. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modelling, mapping and visualisation of flood inundation uncertainties

    Author : Nancy Joy Lim; Stefan Seipel; S. Anders Brandt; Eva A. U. Sahlin; Matthew Wilson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cartography; flood; hydraulic modelling; GIS; map; uncertainty; visualisation; GIS; hydraulisk modellering; karta; kartografi; osäkerhet; visualisering; översvämning; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : Flood maps showing extents of predicted flooding for a given extreme event have wide usage in all types of spatial planning tasks, as well as serving as information material for the public. However, the production processes that these maps undergo (including the different data, methods, models and decisions from the persons generating them), which include both Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and hydraulic modelling, affect the map’s content, and will be reflected in the final map.

  7. 5. Spatial analyses of people's experiences in urban landscapes

    Author : Karl Samuelsson; Stephan Barthel; S. Anders Brandt; Jon Norberg; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Urban planning; social-ecological system; human wellbeing; expe-riences; affordance; ecological psychology; resilience; spatial analysis; PPGIS; Stockholm; Stadsplanering; social-ekologiska system; välbefinnande; upple-velser; miljökvalité; ekologisk psykologi; resiliens; rumslig analys; medbor-gardeltagade; Stockholm; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : Limiting cities’ negative impact for global sustainability suggests compact city development. However, extensive and accessible urban nature is important for urban dwellers’ wellbeing. Aligning efforts to make cities locally and globally sustainable means resolving this conflict. READ MORE
