New publication: The hierarchical morphotope classification

We are happy to share a new publication co-authored by members of our team.

The article “The hierarchical morphotope classification: A theory-driven framework for large-scale analysis of built form” has just been published in Cities.

We are especially proud that several (former) members of our team contributed to this work: Martin Fleischmann, Krasen Samardzhiev and Anna Brázdová.

The paper introduces a novel, theory-grounded approach to classifying urban form, offering a reproducible and scalable method for capturing the complexity of urban structures. By combining conceptual clarity with data-driven techniques, it contributes to a more nuanced understanding of spatial patterns and urban morphology, with potential applications in urban research, planning, and policy.
