What is Urban Geography?
It can be considered a sub-discipline of the larger field of human geography with overlaps of content with that of Cultural Geography
Definition of Urban Geography.
Urban geography is the study of urban places with reference to their geographical environment.
Urban geography is the sub discipline of geography which concentrates on those parts of the Earth's surface that have a high concentration of buildings and infrastructure
.
It is that branch of science, which deals with the study of urban areas, in terms of concentration, infrastructure, economy, and environmental impacts.
Griffith Taylor- Urban Geography includes the site revolution pattern and classification of towns.
Dudley Stamp- Urban Geography is infecting the intensive study of town and their development in all their geographical aspects.
Meaning of an Urban Place
UN Demographic Year Book concludes: “There is no point in the continuum from large agglomerations to small clusters or scattered dwellings where urbanity disappears and rurality begins the division between urban and rural populations is necessarily arbitrary.”
A review of the problems of rural and urban centres as revealed by the Census Reports of various countries identifies a few bases for reckoning a place as urban.
Difference between rural and urban depends upon their nature of work – the former being engaged in agricultural operations and the latter in non-agricultural activities.
Criteria of an Urban Place
(1) A place designated by administrative status;
(2) A minimum population;
(3) A minimum population density;
(4) A concept of contiguity to include or exclude under suburban area or loosely scattered settlement;
(5) A proportion engaged in non-agricultural occupations; and
(6) A functional character.

This presentation is based on a agricultural land use model around the city. This is the theory of urban Geography it describe the agricultural pattern and how should the agricultural activities perform around the city. basically this Model was put forwarded before industrialization and when there was no roads networks and this Model is not applicable in real word but is gives great ideas for developing new towns and cities.

ABSTRACT
In order to study innovations of governance in cities and urban regions we have chosen
to do research on smart cities and policies in a comparative perspective. This research
is an exploratory comparative study of cities emphasizing different ways to address the
definition and implementation of the smart concept. We analyze and compare cases from China, Japan, Malaysia, Spain and United States to find out differences and
commonalities in smart city governance and public policies. Based on these cases, we
also draw tentative conclusions for governance and public urban planning in the areas
and management and organization, technology, policy context, people and communities,
economy, built in infrastructure and natural environment.

World Urbanisation Prospects 2018 by United NationsRAUNAK PRASAD
The Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat is a vital interface between
global policies in the economic, social and environmental spheres and national action. The Department works
in three main interlinked areas: (i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and
environmental data and information on which States Members of the United Nations draw to review common
problems and take stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many
intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging global challenges; and (iii) it
advises interested Governments on the ways and means of translating policy frameworks developed in United
Nations conferences and summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps
build national capacities.
The Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs provides the international community
with timely and accessible population data and analysis of population trends and development outcomes for all
countries and areas of the world. To this end, the Division undertakes regular studies of population size and
characteristics and of all three components of population change (fertility, mortality and migration). Founded
in 1946, the Population Division provides substantive support on population and development issues to the
United Nations General Assembly, the Economic and Social Council and the Commission on Population and
Development. It also leads or participates in various interagency coordination mechanisms of the United
Nations system. The work of the Division also contributes to strengthening the capacity of Member States to
monitor population trends and to address current and emerging population issues.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

―IF ALL THE SETTLEMENTS OF A COUNTRY ARE
RANKED ACCORDING TO POPULATION SIZE, THE
SIZES OF THE SETTLEMENTS WILL BE
INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL TO THEIR RANK.”
-ZIPF
4. The law of PRIMATE CITY
“THE PRIMATE CITY IS COMMONLY ATLEAST
TWICE AS LARGE AS THE NEXT LARGEST CITY
AND MORE THAN TWICE AS SIGNIFICANT.
-MARK JEFFERSON
5. INTRODUCTION
Primacy – primacy is the product of small size of the country, short
history, urbanization, simple economic and political
organization, economy and export orientation of the economy.
The degree of primate city refers to the dominance of the largest city
over the rest of the country.
Primacy of a country is a result of unplanned development.
Primate city –
It is a major city that works as the financial, political, and population
centre of a country and is not rivaled in any of these aspects.
A primate city must be at least twice as populous as the second
largest city in the country.
Primate cities are often, but not always, the capital cities of a country.
6. Factors affecting primacy
Size of the country
Colonial history
Export orientation of the economy
Simple economic and political organization
Dual economy
7. FACTORS ENCOURAGING PRIMACY
Spread of colonialism
Strong centralized government
Economic factors
Industrial agglomeration
Rural urban migration
Efficiency of modern transport
8. ADVANTAGES OF PRIMATE CITIES
Economies of large scale can be achieved
because they attract overseas investment and
benefits that will eventually benefit the whole
country.
Attractive places of migration.
Resources, services and infrastructure
available on a large scale.
9. PROBLEMS FACED BY PRIMATE CITIES
House shortages.
Traffic congestion.
Crime.
Pollution.
Urban rural inequalities.
Concentration of power supplies.
Increase in land value resulting in price rise .
Imbalance in development – usually a progressive
core, lagging periphery, on which primate city
depends for labour and other resources.
10. EXAMPLES OF COUNTRIES WITH PRIMATE CITIES
Paris (9.6 million) is definitely the focus of France
while Marseilles has a population of 1.3 million.
United kingdom has London as its primate city (7
million) while the second largest city, Birmingham
is home to a mere one million people.
Mexico city, Mexico (8.6 million) outshines
Guadalajara (1.6 million).
A huge dichotomy exists between Bangkok (7.5
million) and Thialand’s second city, Nanthaburi
(4,18,000).
11. EXAMPLES OF COUNTRIES LACKING PRIMATE CITIES
India’s most populous city is Mumbai with a population
of 16 million, second is Kolkata with more than 13
million.
China, Canada, Australia, and brazil are other examples
of countries which lack primate cities.
U.S. Lacks a true primate city. New York city has a
population of approx. 21 million, second ranked Los
Angeles at 16 million, and third ranked Chicago with a
population of 9 million.
12. CASE STUDY -CITY OF ANGELS : BANGKOK
Some facts :
Bangkok has been the capital
city for more than 200 years
One of the world’s most
populated cities.
Registered population of over
6.5 million.
1,569 sq.Km. Area.
Population density is about
3600 persons per sq.Km.
Recently has been explosive
growth of urbanization.
Growth started recently, in the
fifties and sixties.
13. The Bangkok metropolitan area represents one of the world’s most
extreme examples of primacy. Its share of the national urban
population increased from 45% in 1945 to 63% in 1980.
Approximately 70% of Thailand's urban population now live in
Bangkok (and 10% of the country’s total population).
In comparison, 30% of the Philippine's total urban population live
in manila and 27% of Malaysia's urban population live in Kuala
Lampur - the regions second and third most primate cities.
Bangkok has a disproportionate share of other development
indices:
79% of all pharmacists
45% of all doctors
80% of the country’s telephones
72% of all registered passenger cars
It provides 60% of the country’s gross domestic product.
The primacy of Bangkok means that it does not fit the 'rank size
rule'.
14. FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO BANGKOK’S PRIMACY
The large distances between major urban
cities is a contributory factor to Bangkok's
primacy.
Nakhon ratchasima, Thailand's second largest
city is 250 kilometers away from Bangkok.
The size of Bangkok also hampers the
emergence of contending larger cities since
employment and business opportunities are
concentrated in the city.
16. Urban problems in Bangkok
Extreme traffic congestion and
rapid urbanization.
Disorderly settlements, shanty
towns.
Poor planning.
Pressure on land use means few
recreational
areas, cramped, squalid conditions.
Economic problems –
unemployment.
Poverty.
Poor housing condition.
Degradation of standard of living.
Pollution.
Conflicting demands.
17. RANK SIZE RULE
If all the cities in a country are placed in
order from the largest to the smallest, each
one will have a population half the size of
the preceding city.
18. Main aim of rank size rule
The main aim of the rank size rule is to
find regularities concerning the
characteristics of settlements in various
countries, and to fit a graphical
description of size distribution of the
cities.
19. THEORY OF RANK SIZE RULE
Zipf’s observed the size and number of settlements in
various countries. He noticed a common characteristic
which has been called the rank size rule. Having
observed this order in the real world, he then sought to
explain it. The rank size rule is an empirical regularity.
The settlements within a defined area are ranked in
descending order according to the size of their
population.
The size of a particular town can be predicted by
observing its rank and the size of the largest city in the
area.
The town’s population is derived by dividing the largest
city’s population by the towns' rank.
20. THE RANK SIZE RULE - FORMULA
Pr = Pi / r
where,
Pr = population of rth rank size.
Pi = population of the largest city
r = rank of the city
The second ranking city of a country has one half of the
population of the largest city. The third largest city is one
third of the largest .
21. The rank size pattern
The theoretical rank size rule pattern is a
straight line.
In urban primacy, a single city dominates and is
much greater than the next large center. (Primary
pattern)
In binary pattern two or more cities are larger
than the predicted size.
In stepped order pattern there are series of
levels and steps. (Conurbations, cities, towns etc.)
23. Problems and applicability
There is no universal definition of city sizes ; where to limit the
city present problems.
There are many areas where the built up area exceeds
outside the administrative boundaries.
And many city workers live beyond the edge of the building
area.
To what area should the rank size rule be applied.
The inclusion and exclusion of a very large city will very much
affect the analysis.
Rank size rule can be better used to comparative purposes it
is more descriptive rather than explanatory or predictive.
25. Applicability in India
At national level rank size rule is absent in India.
At upper hierarchy India is dominated by three cities all of which have a
population very close to each other.
For example according to 2001 census Greater Mumbai has
16368,Kolkatta has 13216 and Delhi has 12791 thousand population.
At the second level Chennai has 6424,Bangalore 5686 and Hyderabad
5533 and Ahemdabad 4519 thousand population.
Absence of rank size rule at the national level is because there is no
integrated system of settlements.
But by and large rank size relationships in India are an exception rather
than a rule.
