Several countries present a series of urban problems, such as: dwelling deficit, infrastructure problems, inefficient services, environmental pollution, etc. Urban Engineering searches solution for these problems, by using a conjoined system of planning, management and technology.
Many researches are related to application of instruments, methodologies and tools for monitoring and acquisition of data, based on the factual experience and computational modelling. Some subjects of study are: urban automation; geographic information systems (GIS); analysis, monitoring and management of urban noise, floods and transports; information technology applied to the cities; tools for urban simulation, social monitoring and control of urban policies; sustainability; etc.
Therefore, the objective of this book is to present some works related to these subjects, showing methods and techniques applied in Urban Engineering.
From the great number of interesting information presented here, we believe that this book can offer some aid in new researches, as well as to incite the interest of people for this area of study, since Urban Engineering is fundamental for the development of the cities.
