urban areas and environmental problems has been attracting many scholars worldwide. This paper intends to discover this \u201csecretary\u201d through investigating the built-up areas and their accompanied economic and environmental factors over almost 30 years (1992 to 2020) in Nanjing, China. DMSP\/OLS nighttime lights images from 1992 to 2013 and the NPP\/VIIRS nighttime lights images from 2012 to 2022 are used for extraction of built-up areas. A spatiotemporal evolution model is established to evaluate whether the built-up areas have developed in coordination and the relationship between urban built-up areas and various factors, including compactness, the fractal dimension, boundary and shape changes, exhaust emissions, and the production of general industrial solid waste, which was further investigated to ascertain whether there was coordination or not. The investigated results discovered that Nanjing\u2019s built-up areas had maintained continuous growth from 1992 to 2020, with the compactness of built-up areas gradually decreasing from 0.42 to 0.23 and the built-up differentiation dimension changing from 1.31 to 1.39, demonstrating that built-up areas had gradually moved from a loose pattern to a compact pattern and from irregular development to balanced development in all directions. The macro model of the coordination index change trend is 0.847 from 1995 to 2020, which indicates that the coordination between urban built-up areas of development and their environments has been improving; however, the reduction in urban green space, the increase in waste emissions, and the increased production of general industrial solid waste has raised questions regarding sustainable development.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs15133279","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,27]],"date-time":"2023-06-27T01:49:21Z","timestamp":1687830561000},"page":"3279","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Coordination Analysis between the Development of Urban Built-Up Areas and Urban Environmental Factors through Remote Sensing of Nighttime Lights: A Case Study in Nanjing, China"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8295-0496","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Guoqing","family":"Zhou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangxi Key Laboratory of Spatial Information and Geomatics, Guilin University of Technology, Guilin 541004, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Da","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangxi Key Laboratory of Spatial Information and Geomatics, Guilin University of Technology, Guilin 541004, China"},{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Guilin University of Technology, Guilin 541004, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiao","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Central China Normal University, Wuhan 430079, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qiang","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangxi Key Laboratory of Spatial Information and Geomatics, Guilin University of Technology, Guilin 541004, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Lin, X., Lu, C., Song, K., Su, Y., Lei, Y., Zhong, L., and Gao, Y.
