Description:
Cities provide fertile ground for the development of new theories, methods, and models across many problem domains that span sociology, economics, political science, epidemiology, urban planning, public policy, and geography. Further, the development of a new “city science” is emerging from these fields, co-opting both theory and methods for a new inquiry. Urban space, where a majority of human activities take place on the Earth’s surface, is with a great heterogeneity both geometrically and statistically. However, the current urban analysis may lack the ability to reveal such an underlying heterogeneity. The arrival of big data, e.g., location-based social media (LBSM), opens a new horizon for urban analytics. The fine-grained spatio-temporal data sets tremendously help us investigate the fractal urban forms and nonlinear urban processes (e.g., Ma et al. 2021). As part of the Symposium on Scale in Spatial Analytics and Modeling, this session specifically calls for research on geospatial analysis including fractal geometry, scaling hierarchy, and heavy-tailed distribution statistics, for better understanding urban forms, functions, as well as their dynamics in a context of novel geographic data science for dynamic urban processes.
