Task 2
Identifying the homogenous and heterogenous environmental trends across cities
Identifying the homogenous and heterogenous environmental trends across cities
From the rescaled profiles computed in Task 1, we derive generic indicators to qualify the radial profile of cities on each dimension: identification of sloping profiles (upward, downward, U and inverted U shapes, M and W shapes), concordances and discordances in the evolution of curves along the gradient as compared to the average profile, degree of anisotropy for each dimension along the center-periphery gradient, etc.
