The document discusses service centers in a subdivision of West Bengal, India. It identifies 29 settlements as service centers based on criteria like being linked to a metalled road, having a population over 2,000 with educational, medical and communication facilities, and accounting for at least 0.05% of the working population. The spacing between service centers is calculated using Mather's formula. Nearest neighbor analysis is used to analyze the spatial pattern of distances. A composite centrality index is calculated based on functional centrality, working population, and commercial population indices to rank the service centers, with Diamond Harbour identified as the highest order center.

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 slide discusses about the core-periphery model given by John Friedmann. This model is basically a model of regional Development. You will able to learn about the core-periphery model very easily by this slide.
The concept of growth foci is one of the indispensable strategies for the regional development, which can be applied for the transformation of socio-economic activities of rural and urban settlements.
The growth foci have been identified with the help of certain indicators of administration, communication, education, health, finance, recreation, market and others.
The primary aim of studying settlement geography is to acquaint with the spatial and structural characteristics of human settlements under varied environmental conditions.
City region is a term in use since about 1950 by urbanists, economists and urban planners to mean a metropolitan area and hinterland, often having a shared administration. Typically, it denotes a city, conurbation or urban zone with multiple administrative districts, but sharing resources like a central business district , labour market and transport network such that it functions as a single unit.

Minimization of Localization Error using Connectivity based Geometrical Metho...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
Many localization schemes are designed for finding
the geographical coordinates of the unlocalized node in the
network. Still, it is a difficult problem to find accurate and
efficient localization schemes in the Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSNs). We proposed a new method, connectivity based WSN
node localization using one of the geometrical method namely
centroid of a triangle. By developing the centroid of a triangle
from the WSN network model in terms of localization
requirements. The simulation outcomes have shown that the
modified centroid (centroid_T) performs marginally better
than the existing centroid method with a marginally increase
in the computation process. We also observe the variation of
localization error with various anchor nodes, radio range, and
network size.
Estimation of clearness index from different meteorological parameters in IRAQIOSR Journals
The aim of this paper is to estimate the mean monthly values of clearness index in five meteorological stations in Iraq (Mosul , Kirkuk , Rutba , Baghdad , Nasiriya) for the period (1970-2000) using different meteorological parameters. Five different models (Linear , Quadratic , Logarithmic , Linear logarithmic , Power) were used to estimate clearness index. The performance of this regression models were evaluated by comparing the calculated clearness index and the measured clearness index . Several statistical tests were used to control the validation and goodness of the regression models in terms of correlation coefficient, coefficient of determination , Mean absolute error and root mean square error . Results showed that Linear model between (KT & n/N) and between (KT & Rainfall) were the best fit in all stations. Quadratic model were the best fit between (KT & cloudiness) , and power model were the best fit between (KT &Evaporation). Linear model and Quadratic model were the best fit between (KT & RH) , while power model , Quadratic model , and Linear model were the best fit between (KT & Tmean).
Human’s facial parts extraction to recognize facial expressionijitjournal
Real-time facial expression analysis is an important yet challenging task in human computer interaction.
This paper proposes a real-time person independent facial expression recognition system using a
geometrical feature-based approach. The face geometry is extracted using the modified active shape
model. Each part of the face geometry is effectively represented by the Census Transformation (CT) based
feature histogram. The facial expression is classified by the SVM classifier with exponential chi-square
weighted merging kernel. The proposed method was evaluated on the JAFFE database and in real-world
environment. The experimental results show that the approach yields a high recognition rate and is
applicable in real-time facial expression analysis.

2. The concept of service centres is the outcome of
classical ‘Central Place Theory ‘of Christallar and
Losch. The fundamental element of ‘Central Place
theory’ is the ‘Centre Place’ providing central
functions, which are available at a few places.
There are two main features of service centres i.e.
(i) The provision of external services
(ii) Trade and commercial activities. Service centres
integrated rural and urban activities and created
new employment opportunities for the region.
3. This subdivision covered an area of 1264.68 sq km and the
total population is about 1836769 as per 2001 census. It
considered an overall 26.60% of the total district population.
Diamond Municipality is the only one urban area in the
Subdivision, which covered very small area of 10.36 sq km.
Though it was established long in 1982, its rate of growth or
expansion is really pitiable. The density of population is very
high which is about 3594/sq km. But it is 2.36% of the total
population of the Subdivision. So easily assumed that 97.37%
of the total Sub divisional population lives in rural
areas, where development is taken care of by the panchayet
bodies.
4.
5. The main objectives of the proposed work are as follows:-
(i) To identify potential growth centres and demarcates
their influence zones.
(ii) To appraise the physical resources viz. land, water,
vegetation etc. and cultural resources viz. Human
resource base, agricultural resource, industrial
resource and their localizing factors etc.
(iii) To present a perspective plan for balance development
of the Subdivision.
6. Community development block have been taken as the
unit of analysis.
Various data have been collected by the District
Gazetteer, District Statistical Hand Book, Statistical
abstract of the district etc.
For calculating service centres spacing in the study area
‘Mather’s formula has been employed.
The spatial pattern of distance of service centres, Nearest
Neighbour Analysis (N.N.A) has been employed.
Functional Centrality Index.
7. (i) The settlement should be linked with metalled road.
(ii) The marketing facility is a must.
(iii) A settlement with 2000 or more population having
educational (excluding primary school), medical
and communicational facilities has been treated as
service centre.
(iv)As per 2001 census, out of the district total working
force, share of the centre should be at least 0.05%.
Based on above criteria 29 settlements of the subdivision
have been identified as service centres.
8. The term “spatial pattern” signifies the form of
their distribution which indicates the locational
arrangement of points over the geographical
space. The spatial distribution of pattern of
service centre varies from region to region
depending upon the physico-cultural variations.
For calculating service centres spacing in the study
area ‘Mather’s formula has been employed. This
formula is mathematically expressed as
H.S = 1.0746 A/N,
Where, H.S. = Hypothetical spacing between two
centres, A= Area, N= Number of service centres.
9. Taking the block including municipality as an aerial
unit, hypothetical inter service centre spacing has been
calculated and three categories have been worked out
i.e. low, moderate and high spacing.
Four C.D. Blocks fall in low (below 3.5 km) spacing
group. Those are Magrahat II, Mathurapur I, Diamond
Harbour I, and Falta. This due to availability of various
infrastructures required for the creation of service
centres. Moderate spacing group (3.5 to Bellow 7 km)
holds four C.D. Blocks, namely-Magrahat
I, Mathurapur II, Diamond Harbour II, and
Mandirbazar. One C.D. Block Kulpi, with 15.6 km.
comes under high spacing group above 7 km.
10. For working out the spatial pattern of distance of service
centres, Nearest Neighbour Analysis (N.N.A) has been
employed .
1. ro = di / n
Where, ro= The mean actual nearest neighbour distance
Di= The distance from the i th point to its own nearest neighbour
n= Number of locations in the pattern.
For computing the rE (Expected mean distance) following mathematical expression is
used:
2. rE = 0.5√A/N
Where, rE= Expected mean distance,
A= Area of the unit,
N= Number of service centre in the pattern.
Index of randomness (Rn) has been calculated at the level by using the Clark and
Evan’s formula given bellow:
3. Rn = ro /rE
Where, Rn = Index of Randomness,
ro = The mean actual distance observed,
rE = The expected mean distance.

12. Influence zone of a service centre is consequence of
locational network, distributional pattern of
population, status of infrastructure, facilities and
accessibility to the centre. These factors lead to interaction
of people who prefer a particular service centre, because
of proximity based on least travel time, cost and efforts.
Functional magnitude, commercial population and
working force are the reliable indicators of centrality.
Therefore considering the agrarian economy and rural
character of the study area, 32 functions like
education, health, transport and
communications, administration, agricultural extension
and credit /finance institutions existing at service
centres, have been taken into account.
13. The weightage for 32 selected functions has been determined by
applying Bhat’s formulla:
Wi = N / Fi
Where, Wi= Weightage to the i th function,
N= Total number of settlement of the district,
Fi= Total number of settlements having the i th function.
Functional Centrality Index (F.C.I):
FW1+ FW2+…………..n
F.C.I = ----------------------------------- X 100
∑w
Where, F.C.I. = Functional centrality index,
FW = weightage of function,
∑w = Summation of weightage score of all service centres of the area.
Working Population Index:
WI = Wi / w X 100
Where, Wi = working population of i th service centre.
W= Total working population of the district.
14. Godlund’s formula with slight modifications been used for
calculation C.I. index which is-
C.I. = (Tcpi /Tcp) X 100
Where, C.I. = Commercial population index,
Tcpi = Trade and commercial population of i th service centre,
Tcp = Total trade and commercial population of district.
Taking an average of functional centrality index (FCI), working population
index (W.I) and commercial population index (C.I),The composite
centrality index (C.O.I.) has been calculated for all 29 service centres
employing the following expression:
FCI + WI + CI
C.O.I. = ------------------- X 100

17. Diamond Harbour (M) town is only the 1st order service centre in
the subdivision having 22.15 C.O.I. by virtue of being
administrative headquarters of the subdivision and high
concentration of higher function as well as greater share of
commercial and working population. The first order service
centre comprises 3.44% of total service centre. Magrahat is only
the 2nd order service in the subdivision having 11.35 C.O.I. due to
block headquarter and also higher function. 3rd order service
centres i.e. Usthi, Sarisha, Mathurapur (Bhq.) and Baribhanga
Abad of which one is block headquarter and three have higher
level functions. Their composite centrality ranges 8.12, 7.5, 6.71
and 6.48 respectively. These 3rd order service centres comprise
13.79 of the total service centre. Fourth and fifth includes 7 and 16
centres which C.O.I. ranges between 5.87 (Kamarpol) and 1.84
(Chandapala Anantapathpur). These 4th and 5th order service
centres comprise 24.13% and 55.17% of total service centres.

19. In this study, the entire area of the subdivision
has been organized through service centres as
they perform various socio-economic functions
and provide facilities. These facilities should be
made easily available to consumers with 3 to 5
km radius. The subdivision area therefore
requires more service centres.
