Abstract

The spatial growth of cities and the examination of the appearance of new artificial surfaces have been in the focus of several studies in the last decade. Attention was primarily focused on the metropolitan areas; however, the phenomenon can also be identified in smaller towns, which – at least, in Hungary – can hardly be explained by demographic trends. Urban growth, which is identified in the Carpathian Basin as well, is of concern from a sustainability point of view, so the monitoring and exploration of driving forces is of practical importance. Using the Corine Land Cover Database, the study analyses urban growth between 1990–2018 and looks for explanatory factors to understand the phenomenon. New artificial surfaces have appeared in the surroundings of cities or directly connected to morphological urban areas. Their morphological characteristics are presented on maps and in descriptive form. Those examples are interpreted for which the changes are not related to suburbanization trends or show unique characteristics in case studies. For example, in Sopron a large proportion of new residential areas are constantly appearing, thanks to its location on the border and the multi-centered metropolitan area of Vienna–Bratislava. The role of the ring road in the growth in Veszprém or the motorway construction in Nyíregyháza also determine spatial growth. Although the research approaches the issue of urban growth primarily from the point of view of morphology and land use, policy related conclusions can also be drawn from the results.
以匈牙利二线城镇为例的新型人工土地利用特征与解释
在过去十年中,城市的空间增长和对新人造表面外观的检查一直是几项研究的重点。注意力主要集中在大都市地区;然而,这种现象也可以在较小的城镇中发现,至少在匈牙利,这很难用人口趋势来解释。从可持续性的角度来看,喀尔巴阡盆地的城市增长也是值得关注的,因此对其驱动力的监测和探索具有重要的现实意义。该研究使用Corine土地覆盖数据库,分析了1990年至2018年之间的城市增长,并寻找解释因素来理解这一现象。新的人造表面出现在城市周围或直接连接到城市形态区域。它们的形态特征在地图上以描述的形式呈现出来。对这些例子进行解释时,其变化与郊区化趋势无关,或在个案研究中显示出独特的特征。例如,在Sopron,由于其位于边界和维也纳-布拉迪斯拉发的多中心大都市区,大量新的住宅区不断出现。环城公路在veszprachim地区的增长或Nyíregyháza地区高速公路建设中的作用也决定了空间增长。虽然研究主要从形态和土地利用的角度来探讨城市增长问题,但也可以从研究结果中得出与政策相关的结论。
