Abstract

Urban density (UD) management is one of the major challenges faced by cities. Studies on density estimation and modeling show the significance of this issue in the growing cities and metropolises. The density models for any area, however, cannot be generalized to other regions due to the specific socio-economic, cultural or environmental parameters. A model in land information system environment was developed. This model has the capacity to analyze UD in three levels: blocks, parcels or cells. The model was successfully tested in a town of around 250,000 people and provided an optimal density model for the study area.
