These are joint research presentations with students and colleagues from Kanazawa University. All these case studies are about the application in either Japanese or Chinese cities, which are on the field examples reflecting widespread geocomputation technology. Nevertheless, the concepts have wide applicability to other contexts. The cases can be classified into three types of geotechnological applications on different levels of urban spaces, which are relevant to different kinds of urban planning and development projects.
