Generation of Spatial Structure of Urban Parks Based on Spatial Analysis of Agent-Based Models by Huizi KONG, Tianming LIU, Jiajie LIAO, Liu CUI

“…Multi-source data characterized by high-density distribution can reflect urban features and spatial patterns at a macro scale. This research employs agent-based models (ABM) to simulate spatial information and explore the spatial function distribution of planned sites under urban spatial function penetration, thereby guiding the structural morphology of scheduled sites.MethodsThis research adopts a spatial network analysis design method using slime mold intelligence based on mapping point of interest (POI) data. …”
