摘要: 城市的精细化治理是国家治理体系与治理能力现代化的重要维度，时空智能在该事业中扮演重要角色。从城市科学的 角度，结合新时期的目标与任务，试论述以时空智能支持城市精细化治理的理论基础、方法框架和应用途径。首先扼要 梳理时空智能研究的谱系，并指出既有城市科学研究分别从地理模式、机制和调控的角度出发，不仅为城市精细化治 理建立了充分的可行性基础，而且设定了理论上所能达到的目标；大量方法研究亦为城市空间格局分析、交互和时间 动态规律挖掘、问题归因和趋势预测，以及运筹优化提供了丰富的工具库。进一步地，通过具体案例展示上述时空智能 工具在从城市态势感知、空间管理、响应处置、预判预警到体制机制建设的城市精细化治理完整闭环中的应用途径。
Abstract: Refined urban governance is an important dimension of the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, and spatiotemporal intelligence plays a significant role in this endeavor. This paper, from the perspective of urban science and considering the objectives and tasks of the New Era, attempts to discuss the theoretical basis, methodological framework, and application pathways for spatiotemporal intelligence to support urban governance. This paper first briefly reviews the research spectrum of spatiotemporal intelligence and points out that existing urban science research has established a solid foundation for urban governance from the perspectives of geographical patterns, mechanisms, and regulation, while also setting theoretical goals that can be achieved. Many methodological studies have also provided a rich toolkit for urban spatial pattern analysis, interaction and temporal dynamic pattern mining, problem attribution and trend prediction, as well as operational optimization. This paper further demonstrates, through specific cases, the application pathways of the aforementioned spatiotemporal intelligence tools in the complete closed-loop of urban governance, from urban situation awareness, spatial management, response and disposal, prediction and warning, to institutional building.
