This article contributes to advancing the knowledge on phenomenon of most popular short‐term rental platforms, Airbnb. By implementing a geographically weighted regression (GWR) and its multiscale form, MGWR, we examine relationship between Airbnb locations core elements urban tourism including hotels, food beverages (F&B) venues, as well access public transport. article’s contributions are twofold: methodological empirical. First, results show that incorporating localities improve...

What this research is about? This looked at why people move between urban and regional Australia, identified the social, economic, demographic policy factors driving these population shifts.Why important? Understanding movements Australia's capital cities areas crucial for accurate forecasting, planning, supporting growth managing community changes.

This study addresses the fouling of heat exchangers by coprecipitating inorganic salts. It investigates effects nondominant CaCO3 on thermodynamics and kinetics CaSO4 precipitation as well scale structure. Even though precipitating salts coexist in industrial water systems, because complexity process, research has primarily been concentrated a single salt precipitation. In addition, all thermodynamic predictive models softwares only consider effect coexisting through ionic strength...

Over the last decade, emergence and significant growth of home-sharing platforms, such as Airbnb, has coincided with rising housing unaffordability in many global cities. It is this context that we look to empirically assess impact Airbnb on prices Sydney—one least affordable cities world. Employing a hedonic property valuation model, our results indicate Airbnb’s overall effect positive. A 1% increase density associated approximately 2% sales price. However, recognizing geographically...

In an era of smart cities, artificial intelligence and machine learning, data is purported to be the ‘new oil’, fuelling increasingly complex analytics assisting us craft invent future cities. This paper outlines role what we know today as big in understanding city includes a summary its evolution. Through critical reflective case study approach, research examines application urban transport for informing planning Sydney. Specifically, card data, with diverse constraints, was used understand...

Abstract This study employs percolation theory to investigate the hierarchical organisation of Australian urban centres through connectivity their road networks. The analysis demonstrates how discrete clusters have developed into integrated regional entities, delineating pivotal distance thresholds that regulate these transitions. reveals interconnections between disparate clusters, shaped by functional differentiation and historical development. Furthermore, identifies a dichotomy...

Cities often show residential income segregation, and the price of housing is generally related to employment accessibility, but how do these factors intersect? We analyse Greater Sydney, Australia, a metropolitan area 5 million people. Sydney found have reasonably even accessibility by car, reflecting increasingly polycentric nature modern city; however, it also shows considerable segregation variance in property prices between different parts city. Entropy used examine diversity mixing...

In this paper, we argue for an explicit decoupling of “walkability” and “walking behavior” the advantages a definition walkability based on access. This provides impetus new approach to constructing using indices, combining accessibility theory with goal comprehensiveness communicability. Diminishing returns-to-opportunities can be used map infinite origin-destination gravity potential space finite scale thus creating easily communicable metric, or metrics. addition, method applied any mode...

Abstract. Colouring Australia is a digital platform for collecting and visualising building level information across several Australian cities. It provides valuable resource bringing together data on age, material, sustainability ratings, walkability other key metrics as we plan net zero comprises part of the international Cities Research Programme, which supports development open-source platforms that provide open national stocks. In this paper outline technical architecture platform,...

Australia is currently undergoing sweeping changes in transforming and digitizing its planning development sectors. However, numerous challenges still exist consolidating making accessible essential data the country to effect evidence-based policy-making. This has been argued have tangible consequences formulating solutions urban problems, such as housing delivery, driving new innovations that are data-focused. In this chapter, we discuss a governance model context of novel single analytics...

In an era of rapid urbanisation and increasing wealth, gentrification is urban phenomenon impacting many cities around the world. The ability policymakers planners to better understand address gentrification-induced displacement hinges upon proactive intervention strategies. It in this context that we build a tree-based machine learning (ML) model predict neighbourhood change Sydney. Change, context, proxied by Socioeconomic Index for Advantage Disadvantage, addition census other ancillary...

In fast-developing regions, like Southeast-Asia, monitoring urban areas presents a challenge given the lack of publicly available data. This is an issue that precludes nuances citys growth and undermines way land-use considered with respect to planning. The data availability very much present in small nation Brunei. Little still known about spatiotemporal evolution its realm; particular, regard national development country interesting case-study pursuit two highly opposing master-plans...

This paper explores the relationships between accessibility, income segregation, and house prices in Greater Sydney Area. is found to have reasonably even employment reflecting increasingly polycentric nature of modern city; however, it also shows considerable segregation variance property different parts city. Entropy used examine diversity mixing groups. Finally, hedonic price models using ordinary least square geographically-weighted regression techniques show differing effects...
