It is expected that more landfill sites need to be built in the future within the next ten or twenty years in Houston-Galveston area. The objective of this study is to identify the best locations for the future landfill sites in Houston-Galveston area using geographical information system (GIS). Landfill site selection is a very important step before building the landfills. An optimized site selection will maximize the cost saving for waste transportation while minimize the adverse social and environmental impacts. In this study, GIS data of different geographical features in Harris County and Galveston County were collected, including constrains of flood plain, streams, hurricane areas, schools, museums, water bodies, hospitals, parks, natural refugee areas and airports that are prescribed by federal and state regulations on landfill sitting. We customized the GIS and generated a grid system composed of grids with 50 acres size. GIS spatial selection method was used to identify the grids that are out of the impact on various environmental sensitive areas. These selected grids have been evaluated in Google Earth using the KML technology. Preliminary results have identified several best sites for future landfills in the region, mainly in the Northeast and Northwest Harris County.","PeriodicalId":125711,"journal":{"name":"2012 6th International Association for China Planning Conference (IACP)","volume":"250 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123673943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research is based on the data of the fifth and sixth population censuses and the temporary resident censuses for those same years. The paper will first introduce characteristics of Chongqing's decline and rise in population from 1996 to 2010. Chongqing had continually been in the mode of population outflow but this trend stopped in 2007. Second, the author analyzes the spatial divergence evolution of floating population (FP) among Chongqing's districts and counties from 2000 to 2010. The performance in population absorption of four planning policy areas was studied and the outcome shows that many peripheral districts and counties transferred from population inflow to outflow, especially those with preferential policies. Both the population and economy proportions of the One Hour Circle area and the regional centers shrunk from 2000 to 2010. Third, the correlation between FP distribution and economic and income factors confirmed, with some notable exceptions, the rule that people tend to migrate towards these areas with a booming economy, preferential policies and higher income. In short, after having been designated as a municipality directly under the Central Government and having 13 years of strong economic development, Chongqing municipality is still losing its labor force rather than absorbing it. The factors determining the floating population's location are not institutional, but economic, such as industrial development and transportation conditions. Differing from other developed cities in east China, the inflow population of Chongqing is mainly concentrated in the city proper. The effect of the spatial policies in Chongqing is not very evident, not that there is something wrong with the spatial policies, but highlighting the need for more cooperation between spatial and non-spatial policies.","PeriodicalId":125711,"journal":{"name":"2012 6th International Association for China Planning Conference (IACP)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128336667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In many of the historic preservation cases in China, commercial and tourism development are the driving force in preserving historical buildings or blocks for attracting tourists and shoppers. Meanwhile, local residents are not included in this exteriorized urban conversation pattern, some are even moved out to a different part of the city in the name of historic preservation. In other word, this kind of historic preservation district, which should serve the local residents, are turned to commercial transaction aiming at attracting tourist. Therefrom, the sense of identity and sense of belonging of the residents are weakened and the vigor of historical blocks is reduced. As Zhang Song stated in his book ‘For whom, we protect the city’, the purpose of historic preservation is that citizens can walk in and touch the old buildings. Admittedly, tourism is the key role in urban development. Further, to guide tourism serve for local citizens is the urgent issue. That is, local people appreciate the heritage of the city and want to stay and nurture the local character. Meanwhile, tourists who have briefly experienced the history and culture of the place during their visit want to come back or even relocate there. After discussing the connection between heritage preservation, local residents and tourism development using some international cities, for instance, Venice, Shanghai, Lijiang, we propose that healthy heritage preservation integrated with tourism development should aim at developing a livable place for local people. The paper concludes by presenting implementation strategies focusing on continuing the urban heritage and building urban characters in the context of urbanization in China.","PeriodicalId":125711,"journal":{"name":"2012 6th International Association for China Planning Conference (IACP)","volume":"129 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132770082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The initiatives are to increase bike usage, improve the last mile connection to other transports, and lessen the impacts on environment. In recent years, Europe has experienced a real boom of public bicycle schemes, which make the public bicycle accessible as a part of other public transport systems. The number of cities that already implemented or plan to do so has increased strongly. Bike sharing system has also been appearing in China since 2005; and till now, there are more than 10 cities show their interests in building bike sharing systems. Wuhan launched bike sharing system in 2009, which is the first free system in China, but there are some problems shown in the operation of this bike sharing system. This paper seeks to evaluate the performance of bike sharing system in Wuchang area of Wuhan in China, based on problems which were presented in the operation of bike sharing system. Method on the combination of GIS and Multi-Criteria Evaluation (MCE) is adopted in this research, by building a series of indicators which are assumed that would influence the performance of this bike sharing system. In this research, the efficient performance of bike sharing system is defined as operational efficiency and spatial effectiveness of bike sharing system. The operational efficiency of bike sharing system aims at understanding the characteristics of public bike users, and evaluating the conditions of bike lanes from the perspective of public bike users. Through the questionnaire survey on public bike users and investigation on bike lanes, a series of the characteristics of public bike users and conditions of bike lanes are understood. Meanwhile, the spatial effectiveness of bike sharing system aims at analyzing the characteristics of bike stations, and accessibility between bike stations and other facilities. The evaluation results can be used to improve the public bicycle program.","PeriodicalId":125711,"journal":{"name":"2012 6th International Association for China Planning Conference (IACP)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125492344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
