MUKHAMEDJANOV, Anvar
Hello, I am a PhD student at the University of Hong Kong, Department of Urban Planning and Design. Before coming to HKU, I did my M.Eng. at the Department of Urban Engineering, University of Tokyo.
I am very interested in planning sustainable urban environments in compact, walkable urban forms. I am particularly interested in problem-solving research related to urban energy balance, spatial equity, urban open spaces and public realm. I use various techniques such as infrared thermography, geographic information systems (GIS) and big data analyses.
Research clusters
- Urban heat island analysis at pedestrian and city level.
- Spatio-temporal analysis of cities and regions
- Planning sustainable compact cities and development laws.
