Smart growth by design: Harnessing location rent dynamics to align urban form and sustainable mobility
The classical transportation problem is an important urban and regional planning and policy-making analytic tool as it has the potential to provide deep insights into the competitive advantage of locations for different activities. While the classical transportation problem and its variants have been extensively employed in commuting efficiency studies, insufficient attention has been paid to its mathematical dual. This paper aims to revisit the …
A planning support framework to enable smart mobility: Integrating multi-objective spatial optimization and GIS to enhance commuting efficiency
Planning support approaches can play a transformative role in shaping sustainable, resilient, and equitable urban landscapes that promote efficient mobility patterns. This paper develops a prescriptive framework that integrates Geographic Information Systems with a variant of the transportation problem to evaluate planning initiatives and inform land use policies and growth management strategies aimed at enhancing commuting efficiency at both loc…
Effectiveness of Adjacent and Bivariate Maps in Communicating Global Sensitivity Analysis for Geodiversity Assessment
This study compares adjacent and bivariate maps in communicating variance-based global sensitivity analysis (GSA) results for a geodiversity assessment spatial multi-criteria model and examines the influence of prior exposure to geodiversity and map reading skills on interpretation. It analyzes the quality of map interpretation, confidence levels, and map communication effectiveness. The findings indicate that there is no significant difference i…
Digitalization and Sustainability: A Call for a Digital Green Deal
The relation between digitalization and environmental sustainability is ambiguous. There is potential of various digital technologies to slow down the transgression of planetary boundaries. Yet resource and energy demand for digital hardware production and use of data-intensive applications is of substantial size. The world over, there is no comprehensive regulation that addresses opportunities and risks of digital technology for sustainability. …

People, Projects, Organizations, and Products: Designing a Knowledge Graph to Support Multi-Stakeholder Environmental Planning and Design
As the need for more broad-scale solutions to environmental problems is increasingly recognized, traditional hierarchical, government-led models of coordination are being supplemented by or transformed into more collaborative inter-organizational networks (i.e., collaboratives, coalitions, partnerships). As diffuse networks, such regional environmental planning and design (REPD) efforts often face challenges in sharing and using spatial and other…
A Framework for Cloud-Based Spatially-Explicit Uncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis in Spatial Multi-Criteria Models
Global sensitivity analysis, like variance-based methods for massive raster datasets, is especially computationally costly and memory-intensive, limiting its applicability for commodity cluster computing. The computational effort depends mainly on the number of model runs, the spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions, the number of criterion maps, and the model complexity. The current Spatially-Explicit Uncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis (SE…
What's in a Name? Undergraduate Student Perceptions of Geography, Environment, and Sustainability Key Words and Program Names
The academic discipline of geography, faced with increasing competition from cognate fields and declining undergraduate enrollments, continues to suffer an identity crisis. In recent decades, many geography programs have instituted department or degree name changes, or otherwise rebranded, without any evidence guiding these decisions. This study begins to build an evidence base for these decisions by presenting results from a survey of 4,388 unde…
Geodiversity Assessment with Crowdsourced Data and Spatial Multicriteria Analysis
This paper presents an approach to geodiversity assessment based on spatial multicriteria analysis. Instead of relying solely on weighted linear combination (WLC) for aggregating factor ratings and weights to compute a synthetic measure of geodiversity, the approach employs WLC in concert with its local version called L-WLC to provide a more comprehensive assessment approach. As part of the approach, the assessment input data comprised of geodive…
The sixth of February 1934: The press against the historians
A succession of historians, many of them British or American, have understood the riot outside the Chamber of Deputies in Paris on 6 February 1934 in European terms. Initially tending to associate it with the rise of fascist movements in the interwar years, they have tended more recently to include its actors in the more extended family of authoritarian, antiparliamentary nationalism. By contrast, the contemporary press largely presented it as a …

Please Enter Your Home Location: Geoprivacy Attitudes and Personal Location Masking Strategies of Internet Users
Location masking, or geomasking, is a practice typically undertaken by data stewards who wish to release a georeferenced data set without infringing on the privacy of those whose data are involved. With numerous opportunities to transmit our personal locations through electronic devices, individuals have the agency through masking to stem the flow of their location data or otherwise engage in obscuring their locations. Relatively little is known …
Evaluating the scalability of public participation in urban land use planning: A comparison of Geoweb methods with face-to-face meetings
Two modes of participatory engagement in local land use planning are contrasted and compared: the asynchronous mode enabled by Geoweb applications for collecting and deliberating public preferences, and the same-place/same-time mode exemplified by public meetings. Using data from a public participation process that took place between June 2014 and July 2015 in Poznań, Poland, the article compares the scalability of each mode and evaluates it from…
Debt and Entanglements Between the Wars
The seven chapters in this volume tell stories about correlated macroeconomic and political events that occurred in six countries and four Dominions of the British Commonwealth between 1914 and 1940. By a story, I mean a collection of observations ordered in time together with causal interpretations that come from projecting the observations onto a theory. Correlations among our stories arise partly from the international aspects of the events be…
An empirical test of household identification risk in geomasked maps
Geomasking techniques displace point data to new locations in order to protect privacy while maintaining overall spatial distributions. If the end users of geomasked data are unaware that the data are masked, there is a risk that they will incorrectly associate individuals at the new locations with the masked data attributes. The probability of correct and false household identification depends on human understanding of whether maps contain maske…
Multicriteria Decision‐Making
Multicriteria decision‐making (MCDM) has been a vibrant field of research for over 40 years with practical applications in such diverse domains as business, engineering, health care, environmental management, and regional planning. In geographical sciences, the interest in methods and applications of MCDM began initially in planning and accelerated with the ascent of geographic information systems. The entry reviews the origins of MCDM, its funda…
Geo-questionnaires in urban planning: Recruitment methods, participant engagement, and data quality
Recent focus on sustainable urban development and livability has increased the demand for new data sourcing techniques to capture experiences and preferences of urban dwellers. At the same time, developments of geospatial technologies and social media have enabled new types of user-generated geographic information and spatially explicit online communication. As a result, new public participation GIS methods for engaging large groups of individual…
Mapping the porosity of international border to pedestrian traffic: A comparative data classification approach to a study of the border region in Austria, Italy, and Slovenia
National borders play an important role in everyday life. Interest in border studies has increased with recent changes in geographical locations of the border or the fluctuation of the permeability of the border between some countries, such as in the European Union. Whether the nations are trying to increase traffic flow of the border or to implement stricter border control, having appropriate information of the border is crucial for effective po…
Who's crossing the border: New data on undocumented immigrants to the United States
The majority of undocumented immigrants to the United States enter through the southern border and most are from Mexico. Researchers in the US have been able to create estimates of how many unauthorised immigrants come from each country, but there has been little research on the geographical origins of immigrants from within Mexico. In this research we make use of a unique unduplicated file of people detained at or near the border by the US Borde…

Pour le cas où il m’arriverait quelque chose,” Jean-Claude Méry explained in his sudden confession that day in May 1996. The fallen fundraiser, ailing and embittered, was consigning to videotape rich recollections, professional secrets so generally embarrassing that their revelation could only assure his own peace of mind. Or was he plotting posthumous revenge on the Hôtel de Ville occupants who had disowned him? For last fall, there they emerged…
