This paper presents a methodological approach to estimation of urban population using the
volume of single houses and high-rise residential buildings obtained from an IKONOS-2 …

Urbanization is commonly accepted as an important contributor to the growth of man-made
structures and as a rapid convertor of natural environments to impervious surfaces. Roofs …

The collection of population by census is laborious, time consuming and expensive, and
often only available at limited temporal and spatial scales. Remote sensing based …

Imaging systems, particularly those on board satellites, provide a repetitive and consistent
view of the earth that has been used in many remote sensing applications such as urban …

As urban populations rapidly rise worldwide, it is increasingly necessary to determine the
accurate distribution and configuration of the population in order to appropriate resources …

The aim of this study is to introduce a method for estimating the population of a Middle
