It is essential to understand how urban plans affect urban growth patterns in order to improve current urban planning and management systems.

This study explores the effects of urban master plans on urban growth patterns in different plan periods in Shenzhen. We first quantified the urban growth patterns comparing pixel- and patch-based methods.
