Our Research Area

Our group’s research spans diverse domains of urban planning, integrating technology, health, infrastructure, and socio-economic dimensions to shape equitable and sustainable cities. The body of work can be divided into the following key sectors:

Urban Transport and Accessibility

A strong strand in his work focuses on mobility behavior, pedestrian safety, and regional accessibility. His studies analyze behavioral responses to crossing infrastructure, fleet optimization for extreme conditions like snow, and integration of high-speed rail with conventional systems. He models the spatial effects of transportation infrastructure and emphasizes equitable access. His research bridges psychological, environmental, and infrastructural variables, helping to guide the development of inclusive and efficient transportation networks.

Housing and Informality

Urban informality, affordable housing, and slum rehabilitation are prominent features of his research. He explores the socio-spatial dynamics of appliance usage, thermal discomfort, and energy behavior in informal and resettlement contexts. These studies enable better housing design and inform policy on infrastructure upgrades and energy provision for marginalized communities. His participatory research approach emphasizes community engagement and trust-building, crucial for urban transformation in low-income settlements.

Urban Informatics and Perception Studies

Pioneering the application of AI, ML, and sensor technologies in urban planning, Dr. Jana’s research in urban informatics is both cutting-edge and human-centered. He applies deep learning to classify land use, uses drones and satellite imagery for mapping urban growth, and combines sound and image data to assess urban perceptions. His audio-visual models help quantify experiential aspects of urban life—such as safety, comfort, and vibrancy—making subjective urban experience a measurable planning parameter.

Policy Modeling and Governance

Many of his papers go beyond empirical insights to propose policy frameworks, as seen in his work on winter road maintenance, electricity access, and disaster preparedness. His research has real-world applications in decision-support systems, governance reform, and participatory planning. He emphasizes not only the efficiency of infrastructure systems but also their adaptability and inclusiveness—ensuring resilient planning for future urban challenges.

Urban Health and the Built Environment

Dr. Jana has consistently addressed how housing and public infrastructure impact health outcomes, especially in vulnerable populations. His studies on indoor air quality, thermal comfort, and occupant behavior in low-income housing offer practical insights for designing healthier homes. He explores the interrelationship between housing conditions and diseases such as tuberculosis and examines emergency health services, notably through a detailed analysis of Maharashtra’s 108 ambulance services. His research informs healthcare planning through spatial analytics and system optimization, enabling policymakers to strengthen urban health systems.
