“Locality – Adaptation” Research of Hydropower Resettlement Communities in the Jinsha River Basin: A Case Study of Ludila Hydropower Station by Fang WANG, Zhuoqi LI, Haoyi XU, Jiaqi YAN

“…At the basin scale, the Patch-level Land Use Simulation Model (PLUS) is employed to analyze land use adaptation changes in the basin during two phases: 2005 –2010 (pre-resettlement period) and 2015 –2020 (post-resettlement period). At the settlement scale, the Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN) deep learning model is utilized to identify architectural spatial features, categorizing three typical building types: traditional pitched-roof buildings, uniformly planned flat-roof buildings, and color steel plate-modified structures. …”
