Measuring Urban Quality of Life Through Spatial Analytics and Machine Learning: A Data-Driven Framework for Sustainable Urban Planning and Development
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- Statistical, official, governmental, and census data;
- Spatial data, such as geospatial information system (GIS) layers;
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Study Area
- Region 1, one of the city’s oldest areas, is located in the city center. This region has commercial, administrative, medical, and academic centers.
- Region 2 has four districts. Districts 1 and 4 are adjacent to the city center, and Districts 2 and 3 are considered to be on the city’s outskirts. Districts 1 and 4 are old and busy, with commercial centers. Districts 2 and 3 are characterized by lower socio-cultural status.
- Region 3 comprises three districts: District 1, situated adjacent to the city center, experiences high foot traffic due to its proximity to the railway station. In contrast, Districts 2 and 3, located on the urban periphery, exhibit unregulated development and diminished socio-cultural standards.
- Region 4 includes three districts, with Districts 1 and 2 positioned near the city center, while District 3 lies on the outskirts.
- Region 5 similarly consists of three districts: District 1 is centrally located, whereas Districts 2 and 3 occupy peripheral zones.
- Region 6 also features three districts. District 1 is centrally situated, with the remaining two districts extending to the outskirts.
- Region 7 contains three districts: District 1 hosts the city’s airport, District 3 encompasses peripheral areas and an industrial park, and District 2 remains undescribed.
- In Region 8, District 1 lies near the historic city limits and houses commercial hubs and a major government hospital. District 3 includes a critical passenger terminal for travelers, while District 2 boasts commercial and cultural centers alongside a sprawling tourist green space. The outer boundaries of Districts 2 and 3 extend into non-residential highland areas.
- Region 9 comprises three districts. District 1 is home to the city’s largest university campus, with its southern sector bordering highland terrain. Districts 2 and 3 are emerging development zones, with their southern edges adjacent to highlands that have spurred recent urban expansion.
- Region 10, a rapidly growing urban area, currently sustains a sizable population. District 1 features extensive green spaces and commercial centers, while District 2 aligns with the city’s developmental trajectory.
- Region 11 features a large recreational green space in its District 1, along with commercial centers. District 2 of this region is aligned with the city’s urban development trends.
- Region 12, an expanding zone, is undergoing active construction and infrastructure development.
- Finally, the “Samen region” represents the city’s historic and religious core, hosting a concentration of hotels, traditional markets, and culturally significant landmarks.
