Planificación urbana y declive industrial: el papel del planeamiento en la evolución de la estructura productiva de Detroit tras la segunda guerra mundial

Son pocas las ocasiones en que se cuenta con fuentes documentales que permitan analizar las relaciones entre planificación urbana y evolución industrial de una ciudad. Sin embargo, los informes y planes publicados por la Detroit City Plan Commission tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial proporcionan la oportunidad de estudiar estas implicaciones en una de las ciudades industriales más paradigmáticas. El objetivo de este artículo es valorar el papel de la planificación urbana de posguerra en la evolución de la estructura productiva de Detroit en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. El estudio de los documentos parece apuntar a que el planeamiento pudo contribuir a definir un modelo productivo rígido y excluyente que sentó las bases del posterior declive de la ciudad

A Ground-Truth Video Dataset for the Development and Evaluation of Vision-based Sense-and-Avoid systems

The importance of vision-based systems for Sense-and-Avoid is increasing nowadays as remotely piloted and autonomous UAVs become part of the non-segregated airspace. The development and evaluation of these systems demand flight scenario images which are expensive and risky to obtain. Currently Augmented Reality techniques allow the compositing of real flight scenario images with 3D aircraft models to produce useful realistic images for system development and benchmarking purposes at a much lower cost and risk. With the techniques presented in this paper, 3D aircraft models are positioned firstly in a simulated 3D scene with controlled illumination and rendering parameters. Realistic simulated images are then obtained using an image processing algorithm which fuses the images obtained from the 3D scene with images from real UAV flights taking into account on board camera vibrations. Since the intruder and camera poses are user-defined, ground truth data is available. These ground truth annotations allow to develop and quantitatively evaluate aircraft detection and tracking algorithms. This paper presents the software developed to create a public dataset of 24 videos together with their annotations and some tracking application results.
