Our team at JC STEM Lab of Earth Observations and the Research Centre for Artificial Intelligence in Geomatics (RCAIG) at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University has published innovative research in the Scientific Data (Nature Portfolio Journal). Led by Prof. Qihao Weng, along with Dr. Cheolhee Yoo and doctoral student Yuhan Zhou, the study addresses a critical gap in global urban land use mapping. This study introduces a comprehensive dataset of industrial land use maps covering 1,093 major cities worldwide from 2017 to 2023, featuring 10-meter spatial resolution.
The maps will be highly valuable for urban SDG research and implementation, benefit stakeholders by aiding policymakers in designing environmentally sustainable industrial strategies and assessing the impact of industrial activities on urban environments and ecosystems.
