Combining Google Earth historical imagery and UAV photogrammetry for urban development analysis.

Rural-urban migration often triggers additional demand for housing and infrastructural development to cater for the growing population in urban areas. Consequently, town planners and urban development authorities need to understand the urban development trend to make sustainable urban planning decisions. Yet, methods to analyse changes and trends in urban spatial development are often complex and require costly data collection.

An assessment of the spatio-temporal dynamics of Landsat-derived aerosol concentration in relation with land cover and road networks in the Lagos megacity.

The interrelationships between air quality, land cover change, and road networks in the Lagos megacity have not been explored. Globally, there are knowledge gaps in understanding these dynamics, especially using remote sensing data. This study used multi-temporal and multi-spectral Landsat imageries at four epochs (2002, 2013, 2015, and 2020) to evaluate the aerosol optical thickness (AOT) levels in relation to land cover and road networks in the Lagos megacity.

Dataset of urban development analysis in a section of Kuje Area Council, Abuja, Nigeria.

Urban development will likely continue to increase in suburban areas to cater for the growing human population. In Nigeria, the relevant analysis of these urban developments is not well documented. This article presents spatiotemporal datasets for analysing urban developments in a suburb of Kuje, an Area Council within the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria.

Determinants of perceived quality of health care among pregnant women in Ifo, Ogun State, Nigeria.

Nigeria's health system is among the weakest globally, characterized by doctors' and nurses' concentration in a few tertiary facilities in the cities. Simultaneously, rural areas that constitute over 70% of the population suffer from acute health personnel and inadequate health facilities. Whether Nigeria can achieve the Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG 3) of access to quality essential health care by 2030 if this situation continues.
