Chapter 6 — Conclusions and future work
6.8 Concluding remarks
Predicting an urban growth pattern using spatial analysis will increase in importance. As spatial disaggregation techniques become more established, they will enhance the large regional forecasts that seek to derive a deeper understanding of the urban spatial structure under conditions of growth.
The development, application and validation of the spatial disaggregation techniques will supplement the planners’ toolbox. When the techniques presented in this thesis are
well-developed into deployable solutions, their added value to the urban and growth forecasts can be fully evaluated. At this point, it would then be possible to better respond to the urban form questions to inform the future development of timely and geo-targeted urban policy; that could potentially enhance the deployment of the finite public resources enhancing the efficiency and reducing the costs.
