Study on the influence of roadways on land plots according to the results of monetary evaluation
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2021) Šulʹgan, Roman Bogdanovič; Ânčuk, Oleksandr Êvgenovič; Paharenko, Olʹga Volodimirìvna; Priŝepa, Alla Mikolaïvna
The paper examines the impact of highways of urban significance on surrounding areas. The authors substantiated the size of the road effect zone. In order to determine the quantitative extent of the impact of highways on surrounding areas, the scholars applied the data regarding the selling prices of land plots with various designated purpose, i.e. the estimated money value of land is the indicator of determining the road effect on surrounding areas. Since a great number of factors affects the value of these land plots, in order to determine the road effect for highways, the authors developed economic and statistical models for expert value of land plots with various designated purpose using the method of multiple regression analysis. After substituting different values of distances to a highway within the road effect zone in the model, the researchers established the patterns of change in the value of land plots with various designated purpose and calculated the adjustment factors that can be used in the pecuniary valuation of land plots. The value of such coefficients for residential construction land is 0.85-1.00, for commercial land it is 1.00-1.17, and for industrial land it is 1.00-1.01.The paper examines the impact of highways of urban significance on surrounding areas.

Designing walking pathways for a tourist resort with the theory of six value aggregation paths
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2021) Kowalczyk, Anna Maria
The study examines the possibility of applying the selected components of the theory of six value aggregation paths in designing walking pathways. Based on spatial data collected using a landscape assessment method on the aesthetic values of the landscape of the place under analysis, a model was developed of the network of links of the landscape aesthetic value using a minimum increase in this value. The authors designed scenarios for the optimal routes of walking pathways. The conducted study leads to the conclusion that the minimum value increase path may create a good basis for designing walking pathways. Not only is this manifested in the varied route of the pathway, but also in it being designed in such a way that the landscape's aesthetic value increases beyond an assumed level of aesthetic value. In addition, the use of hexagonal basic fields enables the design of various route lengths and the optimization of time by adapting the model to a specific group of recipients.
Towards transit-oriented development for sustainable urban mobility - insights from a central european city
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2021) Leśniewski, Maksymilian; Świąder, Małgorzata; Kaczmarek, Iwona; García Castro, David; Kamińska, Joanna; Pilawka, Tomasz; Kazak, Jan
Sustainable Development Goals require holistic actions, including activity at the intersection of urban planning and environmental engineering. Turning our cities towards transit oriented development might help in reducing pollutant emissions caused by individual transportation modes that rely on crude oil. This research presents how the use of geospatial network analysis can support local decision makers in the evaluation of potential public transport accessibility by citizens in the case of a Central European city - Wrocław (Poland). The obtained results indicate differentiation in access to railway stations and stops, which results from pedestrian path networks and the number of entrances to railway stations. The visualization of serve area shows which parts of the city are excluded from comfortable access to public transport and in that way high light where future actions should be taken.
The Application of GIS and remote sensing in a spatiotemporal analysis of coastline retreat in Rufisque, Senegal
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2021) Koulibaly, Cheikh Tidiane; Ayoade, Johnson O.
This paper is aimed at analyzing the phenomenon of shoreline retreat in the locality of Rufisque from 1978 to 2018 mainly using geospatial data and field visits. A set of Landsat images from different dates at 10 year intervals was then acquired through the United States Geological Survey platform and shoreline change analysis was run using the Digital Shoreline Analysis System. In addition to that desktop work, interactions with local residents allowed the determination of ongoing adaptation strategies actually in place to cope with coastal erosion. The study showed that Rufisque is subject to serious rates of erosion reaching −19.48 m/year from 1978-1988, close to −8 m/year from 1988-1998, −5.88 m/year from 1998-2008 and −6.67 m/year from 2008-2018. Beside that coastal erosion, it has been noticed that the coastline also experienced in some of its parts cases of accretion reaching 4.94 m/year for 1988-1998, 7.29 m/year from 1998-2008 and 7.68 m/year during the period 2008-2018. In terms of surfaces, Rufisque' shoreline respectively lost 156.81 ha (1978-1988), 80.55 ha (1988-1998), 6.94 ha (1998-2008), 12.93 ha (2008-2018) and in the same note gained 2.86 ha (1988-1998), 32.51 ha (1998-2008) and 19.16 ha (2008-2018) attesting to the fact that the coastline is subject to both spatiotemporal changes. Finally, this study also reveals that while authorities' reaction is taking place at much lower pace, local communities are actually using their ingenuity to put in place strategies to tackle coastal erosion.
Geospatial applications in land use/land cover change detection for sustainable regional development - the case of Central Haryana, India
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2021) Kumar, Surender; Singh, Ripudaman
Timely and accurate detection of land use/land cover (LULC) change is important for the macro and micro level sustainable development of any region. For this purpose, geospatial techniques are the best tool for change analysis as they supply timely, cheaper, precise and up to date information. This paper examines the spatial temporal change trend in LULC in the case of Central Haryana. Landsat 2, 3, 5, 7 and 8 images for the years 1975-2020 for pre and post monsoon periods were analyzed for the study. Radiometric correction was performed to derive better information. ArcGIS 10.2 and ENVI 5.3 are used for thematic layout and thematic change preparation. An unsupervised classification using ERDAS IMAGINE 2015 has also been done to classify study area in eight classes. The year 1975 is considered as the base year for change detection analysis. Results showed an increasing trend for the land use classes of built up, water body, and agricultural land without waterlogging in the pre and post monsoon periods between 1975 and 2020. Remaining land use classes of agriculture with waterlogging, open waterlogged area, vegetation and fallow land/sand dunes decreased during the same period. Increased human activities have changed the LULC in the region and have had a great impact on its sustainable regional development.
