The established economic activity is also influenced by road network patterns and transportation accessibility, to encourage the emergence of new urban activities, activity patterns and movement patterns. The height of land function in the residential area of Marisa is influenced by the ease of accessibility and the demand for residential because it is next to the Central Office district and the urban center. The study aims to (1) Identify components of morphological form comprising land use, road and building network patterns (patterns and densities), (2) Analyzing the morphological form of the old City of Marisa and combine it with characteristic morphological forming components. The methods of research used are qualitative methods of phenomenology. The results showed that (1) the City of Marisa has a characteristic of a village-city frame zone (zobikodes) that is fertile, developing naturally for surplus commodities. The land use pattern of Marisa City, Marisa City Road network, and the patterns and functions of Marisa City are a component of the morphological constituent of Marisa. (2) The City of Marisa forms a compact city i.e. octopus morphology (octopus shaped/star shaped cities) and the custom Tawulongo into local wisdom in organizing the layout of Old Town center Marisa.

The study deals with the patterns of land use composition, spreading and distribution in Khalidiya city, Anbar Province, Iraq. Regarding the generation of slums with endemic mismanagement in the city of Al Khalidiya, the land use pattern needs urgently to be studied and then problems which arise from improper planning can be identified to enable the development of a strategic optimum application. The objective of the study is to identify natural and administrative contexts in shaping the urban form of Khalidiya indicators that influence property use, such as natural, human variables and spatial interactions and to provide combinations and reasons for land use, economic social and utilities feedback in the area under the study. Indicator influence was calculated in context of natural growth and planning decision-making using the SPSS software. The model input was focused on information sources: field studies, immediate interviews with individual municipal decision makers and the Governorate's Directorate for Urban Planning. The development of Khalidiya has largely been focused on natural contexts (economic and social), with a view to only addressing the residential crisis, whilst all facilities and utilities have been overlooked with no concept of sustainability, together with the usage of natural and human capital. The city plan highlights the failure to utilize agricultural areas, prospective tourism, and renewable sources as well as environmental and economic tasks.

Abstract The aim of this article is to show the accessibility of real estate by transportation as a factor that significantly determines the decision to acquire it. Direct access to a public road, or access to an internal road that provides communication with the public road, are a factor affecting the value of real estate. In addition, this factor is taken into account in the process of changing the function of the area, especially in determining zoning and land use. The decision of purchasing real estate often depends on transportation accessibility, because it has an impact on developing the selected plot. Suburban real estate markets, as markets exposed to particularly strong investment pressure, develop depending on the influx of external investors and the local transportation network. Here, the smaller the distance from the city center, the greater the building concentration; nevertheless, it is still important to improve transportation links and create a well-developed local transportation network. The provision of access to main roads on the rapidly growing market is in the interest of local authorities implementing spatial policy. It is also a challenge for real estate investors taking on the initiative in the scope of transforming land use. The analysis of the impact that transportation accessibility has on the development of the real estate market was conducted on the example of two selected suburban communes bordering the city of Olsztyn - Dywity and Stawiguda. Transactions on the local real estate market entered into during a period of five years were subjected to analysis. The results of the research revealed concentrations of transactions of real estate located on the outskirts of the city or in areas well-communicated with Olsztyn. The conducted research also indicates that, due to the activity of investors, a network of internal roads creating a complex structure was formed.

Abstract: Changing the orientation of land demand from the city center towards the suburbs can alter the physical pattern of spatial and economic pattern in that location. The nominal value of the land within the suburbs is not the same, depending on the quality and quantity of space available, this makes the market different and in the end make the spatial distribution of land values and patterns in every corner of the city. The study was conducted in the city of Madiun where the area is physically not too wide and allows the development of the city. This study aims to describe the structure of land values in the city of Madiun in the form of contours as well as to analyze/explain the pattern of land values from the perspective of spatial economy. The analysis is done by looking at each disparity/ difference between the value of land between objects/samples depicted in the contour line of land values. The value of the various soil contours shows the pattern of soil value which is further examined and studied according to spatial theory. The analysis of the land value pattern from the perspective of spatial economy is done with the spatial economic variables that exist around it, such as public facilities, economic center, land use, quality and road network and so forth. In this case a superimpose / overlap between the land value pattern map (in contour form) with maps of public facilities, road access maps, land use maps, and so on. Spatial pattern of land value in Madiun City tends to spread and in each pattern is not interrelated. There are strong indications that land value patterns in Madiun City are spatial economically influenced by several things, such as accessibility, facilities / services, and economic centers. Intisari: Perubahan orientasi permintaan tanah dari tengah kota menuju ke arah pinggiran kota dapat merubah pola fisik keruangan dan pola ekonomi di lokasi tersebut. Nilai nominal lahan di dalam maupun pinggiran kota tidak sama, tergantung kualitas dan kuantitas ruang yang tersedia, hal ini menjadikan pasarnya pun berbeda-beda dan pada akhirnya menjadikan sebaran maupun pola nilai tanah yang secara spasial berbeda pada setiap sudut wilayah kota. Penelitian dilakukan di Kota Madiun dimana wilayahnya secara fisik tidak terlalu luas dan memungkinkan terjadi perkembangan kota. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan struktur nilai tanah di Kota Madiun dalam bentuk kontur serta untuk menganalisis/menjelaskan pola nilai tanah dari perspektif ekonomi keruangan. Analisis dilakukan dengan cara mencermati setiap disparitas/selisih nilai tanah antar obyek/sampel yang digambarkan dalam garis kontur nilai tanah. Nilai kontur tanah yang beragam menunjukkan pola nilai tanah yang selanjutnya dicermati dan dikaji sesuai teori keruangan. Analisis mengenai pola nilai tanah dari perspektif ekonomi keruangan dilakukan dengan variabel ekonomi keruangan yang ada di sekitarnya, seperti fasilitas publik, pusat perekonomian, penggunaan tanah, kualitas dan jaringan jalan dan lain sebagainya. Dalam hal ini dilakukan superimpose/tumpang susun antara peta pola nilai tanah (dalam bentuk kontur) dengan peta fasilitas publik, peta akses jalan, peta penggunaan lahan, dan lain-lain. Secara keruangan pola nilai tanah di Kota Madiun cenderung menyebar dan pada setiap pola tersebut tidak saling berhubungan. Terdapat indikasi yang kuat bahwa pola nilai tanah di Kota Madiun secara ekonomi keruangan dipengaruhi oleh beberapa hal, seperti aksesibilitas, fasilitas/layanan, serta pusat-pusat perekonomian.

AbstrakKawasan Cihapit Bandung merupakan kawasan hunian yang telah dibentuk sejak tahun 1920-1925 yang ditata menarik dengan pola jaringan jalan ‘organic grid’. Kawasan yang awalnya diperuntukkan bagi pegawai menengah ke bawah ini telah dilengkapi dengan fasilitas hunian, pasar, pertokoan, dan ruang terbuka hijau. Seiring berjalannya waktu, kawasan Cihapit saat ini tidak mengalami banyak perubahan  terkait pola jaringan jalan. Pola jaringan jalan yang terhubung satu dengan lainnya serta persimpangan-persimpangan yang berjarak 800 meter menghasilkan kawasan ini cukup nyaman untuk diakses. Beberapa koridor jalan berfungsi sebagai penghubung menuju kelas jalan yang lebih besar sehingga kawasan ini seringkali menjadi akses alternatif. Kehadiran pasar Cihapit berperan penting terhadap fungsi komersial serta kegiatan penunjang pada kawasan. Meningkatnya kebutuhan terhadap lahan, mengakibatkan berkurangnya ruang terbuka hijau pada kawasan yang berfungsi sebagai node serta beralih fungsi menjadi pelayanan umum. Penelitian ini menganalisis mengenai permeabilitas serta konektifitas pada pola jaringan jalan di  kawasan Cihapit Bandung terkait dengan  kondisi tata guna lahan serta klasifikasi jalan.  Kondisi tata guna lahan dibandingkan pada dua periode yaitu tahun 1933 dan 2015 sehingga dapat disimpulkan perubahannya.  Sedangkan klasifikasi jalan kawasan Cihapit dianalisis secara detail pada setiap koridor baik dimensi maupun elemen pendukungnya termasuk kondisi drainase, jalur pedestrian, dan vegetasi. Kata kunci : Cihapit, klasifikasi jalan, permeabilitas dan konektifitas, pola jaringan jalan. AbstraCTThe Cihapit Bandung area is a residential area that has been formed since 1920-1925 which is arranged attractively with an "organic grid" road network pattern. The area, which was originally intended for middle to lower class employees, has been equipped with residential facilities, markets, shops, and green open spaces. Over time, the Cihapit area has not changed much either to the street network pattern. The street network pattern that is connected to each other and intersections less than 2.6 km2 becomes this area quite convenient to access. Several street corridors function as a link to a larger street classification so that this area is often alternative access. The presence of the Cihapit Market participate in commercial functions and supporting activities in the area. The increasing need for land has resulted in a reduction in green open space in areas that function as nodes and switching functions to public services. This research analyzes the permeability and connectivity of the street network patterns in the Cihapit Bandung area related to land use conditions and street classification. Land use conditions were compared in two periods, namely 1933 and 2015 so that the changes can be concluded. Meanwhile, the street classification of the Cihapit area is analyzed in detail for each corridor, both dimensions and supporting elements of the corridor, including drainage conditions, pedestrian paths, and vegetation. Keywords: Cihapit, street classification, permeability and connectivity, street network..

The volume of traffic generated by land-use pattern varies during different periods of the day but there is usually a predictable pattern of such traffic volumes. Most often, the structure of urban land-use fails to provide easy and convenient traffic movement, which in the case of the study area is usually that of vehicles and pedestrian traffic. The fact is that Minna is presently experiencing rapid urban growth. Both the authorities and citizens seem to simply ignore this and its impact on human existence. The research is based on Road Traffic Network Analysis in Minna, to develop a road network map and determine the causes of Traffic Congestion in Kpakungu specifically. Quickbird satellite imagery was used in analyzing and mapping out the existing road network within the study area. Field survey aspects involving measuring of roads, traffic count, coordinates captured were also undertaken. It was discovered that the causes of the traffic pressure in the study area was as a result of the relocation of Federal University of Technology, Minna to its permanent site in Gidan Kwanu and the relocation of National Examination Council(NECO) Headquarter. Majority of the traffic pressure in the area were as a result of vehicles coming from Maikunkele, Bosso, Maitumbi, Minna central, Dutsen Kura, Chanchaga, Tunga, Sahuka-kahuta and BarikinSale going to Bida, Gidan-Kwanu or NECO office. It was concluded that alternative roads should be provided for vehicle diversion to limit the congestion of traffic on the road.

Abstract The effect of urban areas on weakly forced precipitation systems has been studied extensively. However, interactions between urban areas and strongly forced convection, such as supercells, remain relatively unexamined. The present study uses simulations of a supercell to quantify the impacts of a large plains urban area on the evolution and strength of a supercell. An initial ensemble of simulations (CTRLE) of a supercell over homogeneous land use is performed using the WRF-ARW Model. Additionally, 108 simulations are conducted in which the land-use pattern of Dallas–Ft. Worth, Texas, is placed inside the model domain, with the city center shifted to be in or near the path of the supercell. Simulations with urban areas are compared to CTRLE, with the aid of hierarchical clustering analysis to form statistically similar groups of simulations. Clustering analyses identify groups of ensemble members with closely located urban areas that have similar patterns of 0–1-km updraft helicity and near-surface minimum temperature and maximum wind speeds. Comparison of these groups of ensemble members to CTRLE suggests the urban area has a significant impact on storm characteristics, particularly on low-level rotation and mesocyclone track. Simulations where the storm passes to the north of or directly over the city center late in its life cycle deviate most significantly from CTRLE. In these members, low-and midlevel mesocyclone strength increases, and the mesocyclone tracks farther south when compared to CTRLE.

This study investigates the consequence of urban sprawl on changing land use and building patterns in Akure and its adjoining communities. The study adopts Survey Research Design to investigate the upshot via structured questionnaire on sampled households in Akure region, which involved Akure municipal and eight adjoining settlements. The study also made use of interview, personal observation and photo-snaps to elucidate existing situation in the region. The average households in Akure were estimated at 95,232 and 14,794 in the eight adjoining communities. From this, a sample size of 1% was systematically selected; 952 in Akure municipal and 147 in the adjoining settlements. Findings show a regular massive flow of influx into the city due to unguided expansion which have serious sway in the determination of land use pattern in the city and its contiguous communities. This, in turn, has significant influence on variation in building patterns across the region. To mitigate this, the study advocates that concerned ministries should employ resourceful control measures over private and public land uses through effective zoning strategy. It also suggests the introduction of regional development programs in checking the rate of influx into Akure, being the state capital. Local government headquarters and other major towns in the region should be reinforced with functional basic facilities to curtail the excessive inflow of people to the state capital.
