To Document City Evolution of Miami, Florida

Research Question/Statement

Our aim was to evaluate Miami's city evolution and  growth in terms of roadworks, street and highways networks, with respect to land acquisition. From 1984, Miami has been growing at a very fast pace, acquiring land, and building on it. The transport network, then too, has to grow rapidly to cater to the new infrastructure, making it accessible. Thus, we mapped the ever-growing road network, with respect to the land increase to evaluate the speed at which Miami is growing, and also, when will too much improvement will result in slowing down the development of the city, all in all, making it unaffordable to live there.
