Abstract
- In this research, remote sensing satellite imagery has been applied to assess dynamic and static sprawl measured simultaneously via a multi-technique approach. The first technique, which evaluates dynamic sprawl, essentially measures the "magnitude" and "direction". The second technique, which evaluates static sprawl, measures the "magnitude" and "pattern". The dynamic sprawl used in this study, shows in which "direction", in what "period" and to what "extent" Kerman had sprawl. In the static sprawl, the most sprawled pattern that the city of Kerman follows is Area-Edge, followed by Aggregation, Shape and Diversity, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
