Spatial measures and methods in sustainable urban morphology: A systematic review

摘要: Urban morphology is examined in various disciplines as it is associated with a range of ecological, social, and economic sustainable outcomes. Yet there is a lack of clarity and consensus on measuring urban morphology indicators that will allow interdisciplinary scholarship at a city, regional, or global scale for integrated sustainable solutions. This systematic review aims to 1) develop a taxonomy of measures of urban form indicators linked to sustainable outcomes spanning environmental, economic, and social dimensions, 2) systematically summarize the quantitative methods used to analyze urban morphology-sustainability relationships, 3) identify existing research trends, gaps, and future research directions for sustainable urban morphology studies. Based on the 89 systematically searched and synthesized articles, we identified 365 unique metrics of urban morphology with a wide variability of names …
