Description
As a metric for characterising urban sprawl, the measure of urban sprawl (Z or weighted urban permeation WUP) was first propagated by Jaeger et al. (2008). We use this measure here. Urban sprawl is expressed in DSE/m2. The metric was refined within the framework of the National Research Programme 54 "Sustainable settlement and infrastructure development" in the project "Landscape sprawl Switzerland - Quantitative analysis 1935 to 2002 and implications for spatial planning" (Jaeger et al. 2008).
