Abstract

[This chapter is an overview of the entire book. In planning practice, geospatial analysis and modelling serves as a planning support tool to search for solutions of a better urban form by ascertaining the patterns of activities in urban space. The application of geospatial analysis would focus on two essential aspects of urban system: urban space and urban activity. In this book, urban activity refers to human behaviour taking place in urban space, and their spatial pattern can reflect how human beings behave relative to the urban form. We tested urban activity using large-scale personal traffic surveys and their moving tracks recorded in mobile devices. The analysis was intended to identify the conflicts between urban activity and urban spaces, therefore providing solutions to the planning and design issues.]
