我们已经开发了一个程序，其特点的城市系统的土地利用模式使用：（a）空间熵，衡量的程度蔓延的住宅，商业和工业部门;和（B）指数的差异，量化的程度混合在空间的不同部门。该方法是通过使用城市国家的新加坡和北美城市的选择的土地利用分区地图来说明。我们发现，大多数城市的一个共同特征是工业区高度聚集，同时与住宅区或商业区隔离。我们还表明，住宅熵和住宅区和商业区之间的差异指数的组合提供了一个定量的和潜在的有用的手段来区分不同城市的土地利用模式。
We have developed a procedure that characterizes the land use pattern of an urban system using: (a) Spatial entropy that measures the extent of spread of residential, business and industrial sectors; and (b) Index of dissimilarity that quantifies the degree of mixing in space of different sectors. The approach is illustrated by using the land use zoning maps of the city state of Singapore and a selection of North American cities. We show that a common feature of most cities is for the industrial areas to be highly clustered while at the same time segregated from the residential or business districts. We also demonstrate that the combination of entropy of residential and dissimilarity index between residential and business areas provides a quantitative and potentially useful means of differentiating the land use pattern of different cities.
