Using Spatial Analysis and Geovisualization to Reveal Urban Changes: Milan, Italy, 1737–2005

Abstract: The Italian city of Milan provides a fascinating laboratory for disentangling the historical layers that structure the spatial layout of a European city. In the last 250 years, the temporal span of this study, Milan has played a key role in Italy's industrialization and as its gateway to the centres of economic and cultural modernization in Western Europe. This article proposes a spatial analytical methodology that incorporates geovisualization techniques to discover and map urban change in Milan. Using histor… Show more

“…A potential limiting factor is the availability of historic data. These data may exist for specific areas [53], [54] or may be reconstructed [55]. In most cases there exists at least satellite imagery, such as from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Land-Cover Land Use Change program (http://lcluc.umd.edu/) that can be used to generate historic maps.…”

“…Many scholars have utilized quantitative GIS techniques to analyse landscape changes with historical maps in diverse spatial settings from the ‘natural’ to urban built‐up environments. Historical maps have been scanned, geo‐rectified, and digitized for long‐term change studies for quantitative analysis (Vuorela et al ., ; Antrop, ; Bender et al ., ; Tucci et al ., ; Lloyd et al ., ).…”
