Using Nighttime Light Data and POI Big Data to Detect the Urban Centers of Hangzhou

Abstract: The worldwide development of multi-center structures in large cities is a prevailing development trend. In recent years, China's large cities developed from a predominantly mono-centric to a multi-center urban space structure. However, the definition and identification city centers is complex. Both nighttime light data and point of interest (POI) data are important data sources for urban spatial structure research, but there are few integrated applications for these two kinds of data. In this study, visible in… Show more

“…With the increased use of big data, academics can now measure urban centers on a microscopic scale. Point-of-interest (POI) data, formally known as the real geographic POI, are a commonly used data source [29,30]. In some existing studies, scholars proved that POI data with high spatial precision and small geospatial granularity provide a fairly good spatial expression ability that can support the urban center recognition method [29][30][31].…”

“…Because SUM j characterizes the size of the total urban centers in one unit, it can be used to compare the scale difference among various county-level centers. A larger scale urban center indicates a more powerful service capacity and a broader range of functional radiation [29]. P j can be measured as follows:…”

“…Furthermore, we used big data [65] and nighttime light data to study urban development. Considering the fusion of multi-source data, the nightlight images have been combined with land surface temperature [66,67], normalized difference building index [68,69], point of interest [70,71], open street map [72,73], and other relevant data [74,75] to further improve the accuracy of the research data. It is no longer appropriate to use Zipf's law alone to analyze urban development.…”

“…There are a variety of methods to identify and evaluate urban polycentric spatial structures for different city size. In this paper, the author identifies the spatial structure of urban polycentric from the perspective of human activities with the help of the mature method framework and point of interest data [9]. And it also uses two typical cities in western China as the points to answer the positive impact of urban spatial structure features on urban development.…”
