This work presents cases studies of applications of Geotechnology such as Geography Information Systems, virtual reality and cellular automaton and multi-agent systems in the field of urban planning and design.These are joint research presentations with students and colleagues from Kanazawa University. All these case studies are about application in Japanese or Chinese cities, which areon-field examples reflecting the enormous spread of geo-computation technology. Nevertheless, the concepts have wide applicability to other contexts. The works can be classified into three types of Geotechnological applications at different levels of urban spaces, which are relevant to different kinds of urbanplanning and development projects. The book is comprised of three parts: Part1: Geosimulation and land use plan Part 2: Geo Visualization and urban designPart 3: Geography information system and planning support First book of this kind. Unique study for those new to urban planning. Provides a comprehensive overview. INDICE: Part 1: Geosimulation and land use plan. Part 2: Geo Visualizationand urban design. Part 3: Geography information system and planning support.
