The dataset "Redefined Cities" depicts the redefined central regions of natural cities across China using emerging spatial big data. The dataset includes four shapefile data: redefined cities in 2011 and 2016, and corresponding blocks within cities. The redefined cities and blocks are computed with the method of redefining cities (Song, Y. et al. 2018) and points of interest (POIs) data.
利用新兴的大规模地理空间大数据,我们对中国城市系统从实体地域角度进行了全面的重新定义,本数据集对这一成果进行了共享:包括四个shapefile数据:2011年和2016年重新定义的城市边界,以及重新定义城市内部相应的地块构成。
The brief descriptions and attributes of four shapefile data are listed below.
下面列出了四个shapefile数据的简要描述和属性:
(1) Redefined cities in 2011
The data consists of 2005 redefined cities with the total area of 0.167 million square kilometres. Five attributes are available for the data, including ID of redefined cities (CityID), area (Areakm2), POI density (PoiDens), density of road junctions (JuncDens) and population density (PopDens).
(1) 2011年重新定义城市
数据包括2005个重新定义的城市,总面积为0.167万平方公里。数据有五个属性,包括重新定义的城市ID (CityID)、面积(Areakm2)、POI密度(PoiDens)、道路交叉口密度(juncden)和人口密度(PopDens)
(2) Blocks of redefined cities in 2011
The data consists of 78 thousand blocks within the 2005 redefined cities. It includes two attributes: the corresponding ID of redefined cities (CityID) and areas of blocks (Areakm2).
2) 2011年重新定义的城市街区
这些数据由2005个重新定义的城市中的7.8万个地块组成。它包含两个属性:重新定义的城市的对应ID (CityID)和块的面积(Areakm2)
(3) Redefined cities in 2016
The data consists of 4678 redefined cities with the total area of 0.726 million square kilometres. Three attributes are available for the data, including ID of redefined cities (CityID), area (Areakm2) and POI density (PoiDens).
(3) 2016年重新定义城市
数据包括4678个重新界定的城市,总面积为0.726万平方公里。数据有三个属性,包括重新定义的城市ID (CityID)、面积(Areakm2)和POI密度(PoiDens)
(4) Blocks of redefined cities in 2016
The data consists of 187 thousand blocks within the 4678 redefined cities. It includes two attributes: the corresponding ID of redefined cities (CityID) and areas of blocks (Aream2).
(4) 2016年重新定义的城市街区
数据由4678个重新定义的城市中的18.7万个地块组成。它包含两个属性:重新定义的城市的对应ID (CityID)和块的面积(Aream2)
Note that the comparison between redefined cities in 2011 and 2016 may not be exactly comparative due to different sources and collection methods of POI datasets in the two years.
