报告内容:
       Despite rich and growing list of empirical literature of urban trajectory, comparative analysis within and between trajectories remains largely unexplored. It is fascinating to detect a list of differences and similarities across various scales and dimensions between and within multiple trajectories. In other words, many cases studies and good practices exist, but a systematical comparison toolkit is missing. The multiple dimensions and scales of urban dynamics pose numerous challenges for the application and evaluation of public policies in the comparative context. At the same time, urban researchers have been slow to adopt and implement new spatiotemporally explicit methods of data analysis due to the lack of extensible software packages, which becomes a major impediment to the promotion of spatiotemporal thinking. The proposed framework will address this need by developing a set of research questions based on space-time-distributional features of Urban Trajectory datasets. The authors aim to develop, evaluate, and implement this framework in an open source toolkit to comprehensively quantify the changes and level of hidden variation of Urban Trajectory across scales and dimensions. Free access to the source code allows a broader community to incorporate additional advances in perspectives and methods, thus facilitating interdisciplinary collaboration.
