| Abstract | "Mushrooming of illegal housing on the periphery of cities is one of the main consequences of rapid urbanization associated with social and environmental problems in developing countries. This book discusses the linkage between urbanism and sustainability, and how sustainable urbanism can be implemented to overcome the problems of housing and living conditions in urban areas. Through case studies from India, Indonesia, China, etc. using advanced GIS techniques, it analyses several planning and design criteria to solve physical, social, and economic problems, and refers to urban planning as an effective measure to protect and promote cultural characteristics of specific locations in developing countries"-- Provided by publisher. |
