The main purpose of this paper is to identify the pattern of urban growth from 1993 to 2011 in Siem reap town, Cambodia. Land use and land cover maps were generated from Landsat TM imageries from different years in order to extract the information related to urban sprawl. The settlement pattern theory, geographic pattern analysis and visualisation interpretation were used to detect the pattern of urban growth i...
The main objective of this paper is to describe a methodology to estimate in which directions of urban expansion can occur in Siem Reap town, Cambodia. Three main urban driving force factors were identified: population density, distance to road networks, and distance to existing urban. Geographic Information System based multicriteria approaches were integrated to implement this research model. Fuzzyfication pr...
In this paper, the main goal is to understand the relationship between urban growth and physical factors in order to determine the potential area for future urban expansion. A methodology is suggested for understanding urban growth pattern in Siem Reap which could effectively sustain archaeological sites and to balance the land use between urban and non-urban areas in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Remote sensing techniq...
In this paper, the main goal is to understand the relationship between urban growth and physical factors in order to determine the potential area for future urban expansion. A policy is suggested that could effectively sustain the archaeological sites and to balance the land use between urban and non-urban areas in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Remote sensing is used to analyze land use maps of Siem Reap from 1993 to 20...
