Researchers from the Earth Observation Center (EOC) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen, our Earth Observation Research Cluster of the University of Würzburg, and from the University of Bonn teamed up for a study on global urbanization and its efficiency in terms of land consumption. The paper titled “Was global urbanization from 1985 to 2015 efficient in terms of land consumption?” was just published in the journal Habitat International by Hannes Taubenböck, Johannes Mast, Richard Lemoine Rodríguez, Henri Debray, Michael Wurm and Christian Geiß.
