Data:Urban Expansion (major cities)


The GIS data used in the analysis and in making the maps can be downloaded from the table below. GIS software, such as ArcGIS, is required to view these data.
For each city in the 120 city sample, these data include:
  1. two urban land cover maps, one circa 1990 and one circa 2000;
  2. the administrative boundary shapefile;
  3. two maps of the urban landscape categories, one circa 1990 and one circa 2000;
  4. the map of new development categories (infill, extension, leapfrog).
For each city in the 30 city historical sample, these data include the urbanized area shapefiles for each time period.
