Eine kurze Geschichte des Bauens ausserhalb der Bauzone
Warum gibt es in der Schweiz eine Trennung zwischen Baugebiet und Nicht-Baugebiet? Was waren die Beweggründe, das Bauen ausserhalb der Bauzone streng zu reglementieren? Welche Akteure setzten sich für die Trennung ein und wie lief der politische Prozess ab? Antworten gibt diese kurze Geschichte des Bauens ausserhalb der Continua

Application of Machine Learning Classifiers in Train Route Scheduling
How much are common machine learning classifiers, such as Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machines (SVM), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) better in forecasting than traditional discrete choice models? To which extent is it worth to sacrifice the improved interpretability of the latter to achieve a higher prediction Continua
Platforms and Urbanism: Challenges for Urban Governance
Digital platforms are increasingly present in everyday urban life. This has meant an increasing infrastructuralisation of digital platforms, creating opportunities, but also challenges for cities and governments. During COVID-19, delivery platforms and delivery workers became a staple of urban landscapes, but what has this meant for urban governance?
Archetypes of Socio-ecological-technological-systems for Managing Ecological Infrastructure
The Valpar.CH project assesses the current state of the ecological infrastructure (EI) as well as the basis for a functioning EI in the future. To examine EI and communicate results, we delineate archetypes by clustering socio-economic, ecological, and technological indicators using machine-learning techniques. Within the boundaries of the Continua
Eine neue Schweizer Landschaftstypologie mit Deep Learning
Die Identifizierung und Definition von Landschaftstypen ist nicht nur für die Übertragbarkeit von Landschaftsplanungs- und Managementstrategien unerlässlich, sondern auch eine Anforderung der von der Schweiz ratifizierten Europäischen Landschaftskonvention. Landschaftstypologien werden in der Regel von Expert:innen oder mit Hilfe sogenannter unsupervised clustering Techniken erstellt. Die letztgenannten Methoden haben jedoch Continua

From conformance to performance? A comparative analysis of the European Union territorial policy trends in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
As several Western Balkans countries aspire to become members of the European Union (EU) in the (near) future, it is interesting to explore to what extent EU territorial trends are adopted in both the official national regulations and spatial planning practice. To do so, we: 1) screen EU Continua
Agency in a Contemporary World: Towards an Actor-centred Planning?
The interrelationship between structure and agency has long been in the centre of the planning debate: the structuralist perspective focused on a regulatory structure as an arena for the manoeuvre of rational actors, while network-oriented post-structuralism exceeds such a rigid duality. However, as both approaches fail to fully Continua

Transforming an urban neighbourhood for the better: Should it answer to societal and ecological needs; and be attractive and politically feasible; and sustainable? We developed a serious game for Hochdorf (Luzern, Switzerland) and Sompasaari (Helsinki, Finland) to investigate such tradeoffs. Here, we present some key lessons from observations Continua

Urban Design and the Technological Shift in Transportation
In recent years technological innovations in transportation, such as automated vehicles (AVs), mobility-as-a-service, electric and connected vehicles, have been garnering attention. Some advocates liken the emergence of these technologies to a ‘revolution’ in transportation, while critics characterise this as a gross exaggeration. Despite the uncertainties in technological development, Continua

Controllo del traffico indipendente dai modi di trasporto
Gli sviluppi futuri della mobilità poggiano in larghissima parte su una complementarità e commistione di modi di trasporto.
