Machine learning for land use change analysis and modelling.
2019
Urban development can take different forms or features, depending on its geographical location and its socioeconomic, political and cultural context. Nevertheless, the overall action relies on one fundamental principle: building construction in order to give people housing. Therefore, the main objective of this research is to determine whether an underlying universal aspect of the urban development process can be distinguished from a specific one, being the reflect of local specificities. Specifically, this research analyzes the land use change on the French-German cross-border area. Indeed, the border context enhances the difference within this territory. Nonetheless, the internal European…
Constraint Cellular Automata for Urban Development Simulation: An Application to the Strasbourg-Kehl Cross-Border Area
2017
AcknowledgementsThe research presented in this chapter is part of the Smart. Boundary project supported by the Fonds National de la Recherche in Luxembourg and CNRS in France (ref. INTER/CNRS/12/02). The authors would like also to thank the Grasp Program of LISER for allowing cross-collaboration between the two teams based in Luxembourg and France.; International audience; Urban sprawl and space consumption have become key issues in sustainable territorial development. Traditional planning approaches are often insufficient to anticipate their complex spatial consequences, especially in cross-border areas. Such complexity requires the use of dynamic spatial simulations and the development of…
Social capital management. A case study of the town of Racibórz
2021
For many years, social capital has been the subject of research in various areas and social environments. What is worth diagnosing is not so much its functioning or formation, but its management, i.e. deliberate development aimed at achieving individual or collective benefits. The cultural borderland region of the Racibórz area, especially the town, is a good case for an analysis of such phenomena, because, over the centuries, the town has been part of various administrative and economic regimes and thus has developed forms of social capital independent of state structures. The main research questions in this paper are the following: What remains of them today? Are they subject to managemen…

Komunikacja transgraniczna straży pożarnej na polsko-czeskim pograniczu
2017
W pierwszej części artykułu autorka zwraca uwagę na specyficzne cechy komunikacji na pograniczu i podkreśla, że mamy tu do czynienia z dwiema wspólnotami komunikacyjnymi, odmiennymi pod względem kulturowym, narodowym i społecznym, które dążą do uzyskania porozumienia w akcie komunikacji. W akcie komunikacji transgranicznej wyróżniamy dwie sytuacje komunikacyjne: a) nagłego reagowania i b) improwizację akcji nagłego reagowania w celach dydaktycznych, w których barierami komunikacyjnymi są m.in.: nieznajomość języka i przeszkody dźwiękowe (hałas, praca maszyn itp.). Właściwe współdziałanie, czyli planowanie akcji gaśniczej i jej przeprowadzanie, wymaga pokonania barier w akcie komunikacji. Au…
