Measuring urban sprawl on geospatial indices characterized by leap frog development using remote sensing and GIS techniques
Characterizing urban sprawl using spatial measures requires a concise definition of what constitutes sprawling urban spatial patterns. This research attempts to study a measurement of defining sprawl by using leapfrog development index through remote sensing and GIS approach. The IKONOS pan-sharp...

| description |
Characterizing urban sprawl using spatial measures requires a concise definition of
what constitutes sprawling urban spatial patterns. This research attempts to study a
measurement of defining sprawl by using leapfrog development index through remote sensing
and GIS approach. The IKONOS pan-sharpened and SPOT-5 with 1 and 2.5 meter resolution
were used and combined with Geographical information system (GIS) database to analyze the
geospatial indicators using the leapfrog development index. Kuantan city has been selected as a
study area to examine the leapfrog development based on land use pattern for year 2012. The
findings show Kuantan has identified as non-sprawling cities with result from characterization
in leapfrog development that has been tested. However, the gap between sprawl and nonsprawling
was very low. It is anticipated this research will provide a new direction in sprawl
nationally that address finding of sprawl at the atomic level and present a robust analytical
approach for characterizing urban development in city scale at once promoting a city via GIS
& Remote Sensing technology respectively towards Digital and Green cities. |
