商品描述

This book is an earnest effort in understanding the slums and their needs by taking a case study of Kalaburagi, India. This study aims to contribute sustainable methodologies to advance the living conditions of slum dwellers and for better execution of slum policies. The core objectives are: 1) mapping the existing slums of Kalaburagi (formerly Gulbarga) city using slum ontology from very high-resolution data and validating the slum map through ground survey and using reliable data; 2) developing a model to understand the factors which are responsible for the present growth as well as to predict the future growth of slums; 3) estimating the housing demand of urban poor and suggesting a suitable site for the rehabilitation program; and 4) suggestions for the better intervention of government policies with special reference to in-situ program.

 

Urban is the future, and slums are its reality. Sustainable development goals are directly and indirectly concerned about the increasing urbanization and the slums. Housing the urban poor and affordable housing to all are the national missions. Practically making these plans successful depends on a deep understanding of urban issues and proper methodology and technology to handle it. The participatory slum mapping, cellular automata slum model, housing demand analysis, and the spatial decision support system demonstrated in the book help in monitoring and managing the slums and thus lead towards a slum-free India.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書是對印度卡拉布拉吉(Kalaburagi)貧民窟及其需求的深入研究。這項研究旨在提供可持續的方法,以改善貧民窟居民的生活條件,並更好地執行貧民窟政策。其核心目標包括:1) 使用非常高解析度的數據,利用貧民窟本體論繪製卡拉布拉吉(前稱古爾巴卡,Gulbarga)市現有貧民窟的地圖,並通過實地調查和可靠數據驗證該貧民窟地圖;2) 開發一個模型,以了解導致當前增長的因素,並預測貧民窟的未來增長;3) 估算城市貧困人口的住房需求,並建議適合的安置計劃地點;4) 提出改善政府政策介入的建議,特別是針對現場安置計劃(in-situ program)。

城市是未來,而貧民窟則是其現實。可持續發展目標直接和間接地關注日益增加的城市化和貧民窟。為城市貧困人口提供住房以及為所有人提供可負擔住房是國家的使命。實際上,成功實現這些計劃依賴於對城市問題的深入理解,以及適當的方法和技術來處理這些問題。本書中展示的參與式貧民窟繪圖、細胞自動機貧民窟模型、住房需求分析和空間決策支持系統,有助於監測和管理貧民窟,從而邁向無貧民窟的印度。

作者簡介

Prof. Sulochana Shekhar is the Dean of the School of Earth Sciences and Head of the Department of Geography at the Central University of Tamil Nadu, Thiruvarur, India. She is the proud recipient of Erasmus Mundus (European Commission) Fellowship, Commonwealth Academic Fellowship (United Kingdom) and Endeavor Research Fellowship (Australia). Her research interests include urban geography, application of remote sensing and geospatial techniques in urban environments.


She is presently teaching urban geography and the fundamentals and applications of geoinformatics at the post-graduation level. She has worked on cellular automata based urban growth models and urban sprawl assessment using entropy for her doctoral research. Object based image analysis was the main theme of her post-doctoral research. She has previously worked on projects involving spatial decision support system for slums and extraction of slums and urban green space using object-based image analysis.
