According to the findings, urban sprawl can be measured not only on the metropolitan level but also on a more detailed and precise level, such as sub-municipal. A group of experts chosen for their suitability in measuring urban sprawl select six spatial variables (population density, net residential density, coverage ratio, land use types, percentage of residential land use, and average year of construction). These variables are aggregated using Choquet integral, a technique that combines interactions between those variables providing greater coherence to the complexity that is inherent in the creation of composite sprawl indexes. This methodology has been demonstrated to be valid and appropriate in evaluating urban expansion at sub-municipal level, but can also be applied to other scales once it is clearly a phenomenon in which interaction between criteria exists. The resulting composite index allows the assignment of different levels of sprawl to the urban areas consistent with their morphology and landscape.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong><br \/>\nUrban sprawl Composite index Choquet integral Sub-municipal level.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enlace al art\u00edculo:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s11205-017-1801-3\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s11205-017-1801-3<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Developing an Index to Measure Sub-municipal Level Urban Sprawl &nbsp; David G\u00e1lvez Ruiz, Pilar Diaz Cuevas, Olta Bra\u00e7e, Marco Garrido-Cumbrera.
