“…The most popular topic was tunnelling, [53][54][55][56] underground spaces, [57][58][59] and geotechnical modelling. [60][61][62][63] Case studies for these topics were mostly done in developed countries such as the USA (e.g., Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Boston), Japan (Tokyo), Canada (e.g., Metro Toronto, Ontario, Saskatchewan), United Kingdom (London), The Netherland, Singapore, etc.…”

Urbanization contributes to the emerging urban areas across the world. The importance of geology to ensure sustainability, has led to many research publications in the urban geology. This paper aims to discover the research trends through a bibliometric analysis of articles indexed within the Scopus database from 1950 to 2018 on topics related to geology and urban. The analysis found a significant increase in publications during 1999-2016, especially after the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami disaster. The next finding of this study is related to research interest clusters: engineering geological hazard investigation and risk assessment in the urban area (EGR); social geology and urban sustainability (SGS); and urban hydrology and water management (HGW). The EGR studies were mostly in underground engineering geology (geotechnics). In contrast, the least attention was given to the interaction between geology and land-use planning, due to the SGS issues (e.g., urban planning and land use suitability assessment). This study may serve as a platform for scholars to understand the current status and future directions of urban geology.

“…Elsewhere, geotechnical databases are occasionally described in the literature. Lundin et al (1973) discussed the setting up of a Swedish geotechnical database, Wood et al (1982) and Day et al (1983) described a pilot databasing study based on records from the Thames Estuary, England, and Lovell and Lo (1983), López Palancar and Garcia Yagüe (1986), Hartevelt (1987), Ishii et al (1992) and Howland (1992) described databases for Indiana State, USA, Madrid, Spain, the Netherlands, Tokyo, Japan and London's docklands respectively.…”

From concept towards reality: developing the attributed 3D geological model of the shallow subsurface

In recent years, engineering geology has been trying to redefine itself in terms of a set of 'core values' or 'special scientific principles. ' John Knill (2003) illustrated the essence of engineering geology in the engineering geological triangle. One way of trying to understand the relationships between some of the 'core values' is through the engineering geological ground model, which seeks to combine understanding of the spatial distribution of engineering boundaries with knowledge of rock and soil material, and mass, properties and the geological processes that alter these through time. The rapid development in information technology over the last twenty years and the digitisation of increasing amounts of geological data has brought engineering geology to a situation in which the production of meaningful 3D spatial models of the shallow subsurface is feasible. The paper describes how this can be done and points the way to the next stage that involves the attribution of these spatial models with physical, mechanical and chemical property data. Some new developments in the provision of geohazard susceptibility information at the national scale are also discussed. A future is proposed in which site investigation sets out to test a preexisting spatial model based on real data, rather than trying to create such a model based on concepts alone.
