Night-time light derived estimation of spatio-temporal characteristics of urbanization dynamics using DMSP/OLS satellite data
2015-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Understanding the spatio-temporal dynamics of urban development at regional and global scales is increasingly important for urban planning, policy decision making and resource use and conservation. Continuous satellite derived observations of anthropogenic lighting signal at night provide consistent and efficient proxy measures of demographic and socioeconomic dynamics in the urbanization process.
