The objectives of this research are to test the utility of semiparametric geographically weighted regression (SGWR, a spatial analysis method) in the small-scale urban sample, and to understand the geographic patterns of provision and pricing of sharing economy based accommodations in the tourist city. This paper focused on how network distance to heritage site, to casino, residential unit prices and other five attribute categories determine Airbnb price in Macau SAR, China. Findings show that SGWR models outperformed OLS models. Moreover, comparing with heritage sites, casinos are the stronger factors to drive up Airbnb (including hostels) rooms' provision and their prices; and residential unit prices are not related with the Airbnb price in the attraction clusters in Macau. This research showed a little example for the applications of SGWR in the small city, and for the analysis of online marketplace data as new urban study material. Practically, this study provides some scientific evidence for hosts, guests, urban planners, and policymakers' decision making in Macau.

The rapid urbanization and modernization observed in countries like Myanmar have led to significant concerns regarding traffic congestion, especially in urban areas. This study focuses on the analysis and revitalization of urban transport in selected areas of Myanmar. The core of urban transportation planning lies in travel forecasting, which employs models to predict future traffic patterns and guide decisions related to road capacity, transit services, and land use policies. Travel demand modeling involves a series of mathematical models that simulate traveler behavior and decision-making within a transportation system, including highways, transit options, and policies. The paper offers an overview of the traditional four-step transportation modeling system, utilizing a simplified transport network in the context of Mandalay City, Myanmar.

PURPOSES : This study aims to examine the differences between the existing traffic demand forecasting method and the traffic demand forecasting method considering future regional development plans and new road construction and expansion plans using a four-step traffic demand forecast for a more objective and sophisticated national highway maintenance. This study ultimately aims to present future pavement deterioration and budget forecasting planning based on the examination. METHODS : This study used the latest data offered by the Korea Transport Data Base (KTDB) as the basic data for demand forecast. The analysis scope was set using the Daejeon Metropolitan City's O/D and network data. This study used a traffic demand program called TransCad, and performed a traffic assignment by vehicle type through the application of a user equilibrium-based multi-class assignment technique. This study forecasted future traffic demand by verifying whether or not a realistic traffic pattern was expressed similarly by undertaking a calibration process. This study performed a life cycle cost analysis based on traffic using the forecasted future demand or existing past pattern, or by assuming the constant traffic demand. The maintenance criteria were decided according to equivalent single axle loads (ESAL). The maintenance period in the concerned section was calculated in this study. This study also computed the maintenance costs using a construction method by applying the maintenance criteria considering the ESAL. The road user costs were calculated by using the user cost calculation logic applied to the Korean Pavement Management System, which is the existing study outcome. RESULTS : This study ascertained that the increase and decrease of traffic occurred in the concerned section according to the future development plans. Furthermore, there were differences from demand forecasting that did not consider the development plans. Realistic and accurate demand forecasting supported an optimized decision making that efficiently assigns maintenance costs, and can be used as very important basic information for maintenance decision making. CONCLUSIONS : Therefore, decision making for a more efficient and sophisticated road management than the method assuming future traffic can be expected to be the same as the existing pattern or steady traffic demand. The reflection of a reliable forecasting of the future traffic demand to life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) can be a very vital factor because many studies are generally performed without considering the future traffic demand or with an analysis through setting a scenario upon LCCA within a pavement management system.

Recently, due to global warming and climate change in Korea, local heavy storm occurs frequently. In this study, the risky areas for flooding in urban areas are analyzed for flood inundation based on two-dimensional urban flood runoff model (XP-SWMM) focusing on coastal high flood-risk urban areas. In addition, the MCDM (Multi-Criteria Decision Making) technique is utilized in order to establish the flood defense structural measures. The alternative flood reduction method are compared and the optimum flood defense measures are selected. A simulation model was used with three structural flood prevention measures (drainage pipe construction, water detention, flood pumping station). In order to decrease the flooding area, flood assessment criteria are suggested (flooded area, maximum inundation depth, damaged residential area, construction cost). Priorities of alternatives are determined by using compromise programming. As a result, the optimal flood defence alternative suggested for Janghang Zone 1 is flood pumping station and for Janghang Zone 2, 3 are drainage pipe construction.

With the rapid development of information and communication technologies(ICTs) and internet technology and the explosive increasing of internet users, we can find almost every municipal information of local governments by visiting the home page without visiting the city hall personally. And in the case of urban planning information they provide many kinds of information to inform the policy and results of urban planning to citizens The differences of urban planning information from other municipal information, at first many information of urban planning should be presented as spatial data, so we have to provide the geographic information with internet GIS, and second to realize bottom-up decision making process the exchanging of information between citizen and government should be adopted as bulletin board system(BBS) and an questionnaire in internet In this paper I evaluated the sites of urban planning information in the homepage of local governments by many index. the index are composed with 4 categories 20 items on information providing, 3 categories 12 items on communication, and 2 categories 8 items on internet GIS. And as a result I introduce some high scored sites at each category, and propose that we have to recognize the internet as the technological media to broaden the opportunities for the community people to participate in the policy-making in reference to their political demands.

This study deals with the traffic accidents of circular intersections in Korea. The purposes are to comparatively analyze the characteristics by operational type, and to develop the models using the data of 82 intersections. In pursuing the above, this study gives particular emphasis to modeling such the accidents as the roundabout and rotary in urban area. The main results analyzed are as follows. First, the null hypotheses that the number of accidents are the same in both the urban and rural intersections, and roundabout and rotary in urban area, were analyzed to be rejected. Second, 3 accident models were developed, which were all statistically significant. The independent variables used in the above models are the ADT, number of approach lane, bus stop, parking facilities, and others. This study could be expected to give some implications to the traffic safety policy decision-making.

Climate change is expected to worsen the depletion of streamflow in urban watershed. In this study, we therefore considered the treated wastewater (TWW) use as an adaptation strategy and devised a framework to identify prioritized areas for TWW use. An integrated framework that includes hydrological factors as well as social and environmental components were employed to determine the criteria for decision making. Fuzzy theory was employed to consider the uncertainties in the climate change scenarios and the weights of the performance value. All alternatives were evaluated using the fuzzy TOPSIS method. In addition, statistical method and decision making methods under complete uncertainty were used for robust decision making. As a result, ranking the alternatives using the fuzzy TOPSIS method and robust approach such as maximin, maximax, Hurwicz and equal likelihood criterion mitigated the level of uncertainty and ambiguity in each alternative. The finding of this study can be helpful in prioritizing water resource management projects considering various climate change scenarios.
