![enter image description here][2] The picture shows view on Paris from Saint Germain. Visible is the urban pattern of buildings, a lot of green areas aspecially in Saint Germain, flowing river nearby, the cars on a bridge (traffic), the office district in the background (La Defense). The two invisible information which can be extracted from visible information can be: 1. Regarding on the traffic I saw it is obvious that most of the people who are living in this city on Paris suburbs are employed in Paris. We can notice large traffic in Paris direction which should be unusual for such a small city. 2. If we wouldn't know the area it is easy to notice that this is suburbs because of the residential buldings there. Close to us we can see detached houses and when we are going further they ae changing into blocks of flats. The traffic point can become a problem at some point. I think that convincing people who lives there to use easy accesible public transportation can contribute to changing this city to more liveable urban space.
