Abstract

The morphological characteristics and spatial patterns of urban built-up areas reflect the characteristics of urban development. This paper takes Shanghai as the study area, uses the landscape pattern index to analyse the morphological characteristics and spatial patterns of urban built-up areas from different data sources. The results show that both the night-time light extraction data and the land use data show a high degree of aggregation and a low degree of fragmentation in Shanghai’s land use. In addition, as night-time lighting is easily disturbed by landscape lighting, when extracting built-up areas in cities with rivers, attention should be paid to the fragmentation of built-up areas by water bodies to avoid affecting a calculation of the landscape pattern index.
