SLOPE ANALYSIS
 Slope- is upward or downward inclination of ground
between mountain and valley.
The shape of the slope is concave, convex, free face and
rectilinear which are known as morphology of slope.
PURPOSE OF SLOPE ANALYSIS
 The main purpose of the present slope analysis
is to study the characteristics and distributional
pattern of average slope and to express
numerically the regional distribution of the
slope.
 The development and formation of landforms
are dependent on the shape of slope and
process of slope development. So the analysis of
slope is very important in morph-metric
analysis.
 Techniques of slope measurement
In 1890, S. Finsterwalder determined the slope
analysis.

C. K. Wantworth (1930) introduced a simple method for

the determination of average slope
 Regional distribution of average slope
1. Gentle slope (< 10°)
2. Moderate slope (10-20°)
3. Steep slope (20- 30°)
4.Very steep slope (> 30°)
Street hierarchy is…
 An urban planning technique for laying out road that
exclude automobile through-traffic from developed
area.
 It is conceived as hierarchy of roads that embeds
the link importance of each roads type in the
network topology. (the connectivity of the nodes of
each other).
Hierarchy of road
Different between ROAD and STREET
 ROAD is a rout or way on land between two
places that has been paved to allow travel by
transport.
 STREET are public roads that have building on
both sides. not rural area.
HIERARCHICAL MENTAL
REPRESENTATIONS
 People learn the spatial layout of their
environment through repetitive interaction, such
as way finding. The structure of their knowledge
proceeds through stages of different
characteristics.
 As people become familiar with the environment,
they acquire survey knowledge and are able to
locate and infer directions and distances between
spatial features.
ACCESSIBILITY ANALYSIS
Accessibility is a very
useful tool for bringing together
all aspects of the transport/land
use system. It provides an
integrated measure of the land
use system, the distribution of
activities (employment, services
etc) and the distribution of
population.
ACCESSIBILITY METRICS indicate the ease of
reaching meaningful destinations by different modes,
given the available transportation networks and land
uses configurations. In this study, accessibility is
measured in terms of travel time and travel time-based
utility.
These metrics can represent access to a variety of
destination types including stores, restaurants, services,
schools, and public spaces. This metric includes the
time needed to walk to transit stations from any given
location, so access to stations by walking is also
considered as a key measure of first- and last-mile
connections to transit.
