Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between polycentric urban development and zonal land use?

  • Polycentric urban development assigns areas for specific land uses, while zonal land use aims to distribute functions.
  • Polycentric urban development involves regulatory zoning, while zonal land use aims to reduce congestion.
  • Polycentric urban development focuses on maintaining order, while zonal land use involves having multiple activity centers.
  • Polycentric urban development aims to reduce congestion, while zonal land use involves assigning specific land uses to different areas. (correct)
  • In the sector model of land use representation, what influences the formation of different sectors in a city according to the text?

  • Socioeconomic factors and urban sprawl
  • Industrial growth and residential preferences
  • Commercial zoning and recreational activities
  • Transportation networks and natural features (correct)
  • How does the nuclei model differ from the sector model in urban land use representation?

  • Nuclei model radiates sectors from city center, while the sector model focuses on socioeconomic factors.
  • Sector model relies on transportation networks, while the nuclei model assigns specific land uses to different areas.
  • Sector model has independent nodes for activities, while nuclei model assigns transportation corridors.
