Monitoring and assessment of urban growth patterns using spatio-temporal built-up area analysis.

abstract：:Land use change near dense forests is the single major cause of emergence of forest-based emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) among humans. In an attempt to predict where the next EID would originate from, we are hypothesizing that future EIDs would originate from a region having high population density, excessive pov...
