This study models urban development using neural networks, revealing how transportation influences land use. Larger cities with strong industries show higher land use potential, impacted significantly by traffic.
Area of Science:
- Urban Planning
- Transportation Engineering
- Data Science
Background:
- Land use patterns drive traffic demand and infrastructure development.
- Traffic conditions significantly influence land use decisions, indicating a strong reciprocal relationship.
- Understanding this interaction is crucial for sustainable urban development.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the complex interaction between transportation and land use at an urban grid level.
- To develop and validate a neural network model for simulating urban development phenomena.
- To provide insights for guiding the sustainable growth of cities and their transportation systems.
Main Methods:
- Utilized a neural network-based approach for urban grid-level analysis.
- Incorporated theoretical foundations, comparing road and resilient planning methodologies.
- Applied scenario analysis to future urban road development and introduced a multidimensional long and short-term memory (MDLSTM) network to model traffic's impact on land use, considering lags and potential transfers.
Main Results:
- The neural network model effectively simulated urban development laws.
- Case studies highlighted city-specific variations in transportation-land use dynamics.
- Larger cities with dominant industries and tertiary sectors exhibited higher land use potential and greater traffic influence.
Conclusions:
- The developed model accurately predicts land use changes influenced by traffic.
- Findings support tailored urban planning strategies based on city-specific industrial structures and traffic impacts.
- The research guides the development of resilient urban transportation and land use systems.
