1. Introduction
City is concentrated by non-agricultural industries and non-agricultural population [1]. It is an organic complex formed by the interaction of multiple functional groups. Urban area can be divided into the structure of spatial, social, cultural, economic, population, and function [2]. The fourth Congrès International d’Architecture Modern held in 1993 proposed a theme of “functional city”. Scholars raised an idea of “urban functional districts” including the function of dwelling, work, transportation, and recreation, according to the relationship between architecture and urban planning. Later, the “Machu Picchu Charter” promulgated in 1977 stated that urban planning must strive to create an integrated and multi-functional environment in the city [3]. In the “Urban land intensive utilization potential evaluation regulation (Trial)”, urban functional zones are defined as areas with similar land uses, intensity, directions, benchmark land prices, land-use intensive, and land-use potential [4].
Natural resources and social services are concentrating in a region, constructing a specific urban functional zone. As a vital part of urban economic and social functions, the urban functional zone enables people to understand a city’s spatial structure and reflects urban expansion [5,6]. The identification and analysis of urban functional zones is significant in urban structure optimization, urban resource allocation, urban land use, the protection of cultivated land, the selection of commercial sites, the monitoring of geographical conditions, disaster assessment, and urban planning [7,8,9,10].
As a unified integrated organism, urban land should be designed based on different functions to meet the needs of working, recreation, commuting, and communication [3], mainly including residential areas, commercial areas, industrial areas, etc. These areas are designed by city planners and can be changed due to people’s lifestyles [11]. Due to the different socioeconomic attributes of urban functional zones, their spatial distribution patterns exhibit differences. Residential areas are relatively uniform. Environmental quality, the transportation system, and living facilities are the main factors affecting the location of residential areas [12]. The commercial areas are generally located in urban centers or golden areas with convenient transportation and a dense flow of people [13]. The layout of industrial areas is closely related to the type of dominant industries, which require high accessibility and a good infrastructure. In addition, environmental constraints, costs, and policies have to be considered [14]. The coordinated layout of urban functional zones can have a positive impact on the life and work of urban residents. Conversely, unreasonable development of urban functional zones may cause great harm to urban sustainable development [15]. Therefore, the demand for analysis and monitoring of urban functional zones is increasing.
The existing systematic reviews on urban functional zone are generally based on a single perspective. For example, for a type of method or data [16,17], it is difficult to provide researchers with a comprehensive reference. For helping readers to gain a better insight into the present research and application situation of urban functional zone, we reviewed the recent relevant literature. This paper briefly introduces the development process of urban functional zones in this section. Section 2 describes the research overview and current status and compares the main data sources and units in the urban functional zone studies. Section 3 analyzes and summarizes the methods/models of urban functional zone identification. Section 4 organizes the classification schemes of urban functional zones according to the general classification scheme and basis. Section 5 discusses the limitations of existing studies on urban functional zone identification and future trends. Finally, we summarize the findings and limitations of the review. This paper is expected to be valuable for urban studies.
2. Overview and Current Status for Urban Functional Zones
In order to provide a convincing overview of the research landscape in urban functional zone studies, we indexed it in the Web of Science (WOS) (
2.1. Data Sources of Urban Functional Zone Research
Land use and land cover data [18], urban cadastral data [19], and thematic maps can be used for analyzing urban functional zones. However, it may be difficult to obtain these data, and the limitations of these data lead to low processing efficiency and a long research period. Remote sensing images are efficient data for analyzing urban space, especially in the research of extracting urban land cover by using the spectral, shape, and texture information of ground objects in the image. However, the division of urban functional zones mainly reflects the socio-economic of the region [20,21]. While the social and economic functions of the region cannot be obtained directly from the physical features of remote sensing images. It is difficult to meet the realistic needs of urban planning. Nighttime light data can reflect economic activities in urban areas, but its wide suitability is affected by acquisition costs, spatial resolution, and data processing complexity [22]. With increasing use of big data, cell phone data [23,24], social media data [25,26], traffic travel data [27,28], point of interest (POI) data [29,30], and other location-based data have provided new opportunities for the study of urban internal functions. These data have the advantages of the low acquisition cost, comprehensive data coverage, high temporal and spatial resolution, and high sensitivity to social functional attributes [31].
There were 102 articles analyzed (Figure 2). The literature using a single data source accounted for 50.98%, of which 35 articles only used POI data as the data source, accounting for 34.31% of all articles, followed by only image data as the data source. Meanwhile, 49.02% of the articles used multi-source data, in which the conjunction of POI and image data and the combination of POI and traffic travel data accounting for 13.73%, respectively. POI data, used by 74.51% of articles, was the most widely used data. We used the keywords from 102 articles and imported the information into WordArt (
The main reason is that POI data are closely related to the land-use type, with few privacy issues and relatively easy data processing [32]. POI data can reflect the spatial distribution of industries and public institutions. However, it cannot directly describe the spatial scale of industries [4,33,34,35]. Cell phone data can objectively reflect the real-time distribution of urban populations without functional semantic information [36]. Social media data have plenty of semantic information with the disadvantage of feature sparseness and processing difficulties [37,38]. Traffic travel data can indicate the activity characteristics of citizens, but the analysis accuracy depends largely on the built-in algorithm of Internet map service providers [39]. The acquisition of these socio-economic data includes web crawlers, open API interfaces, and purchases from service providers. Since possible privacy issues limit wide applicability, the above are seldom used as the single data source [40,41]. The identification of urban functional zones based on multi-source data increases the semantic information, improves the spatial and temporal resolution, and provides more accurate results for urban functional zone identification [29,40,42].
2.2. The Basic Unit of Urban Functional Zone Identification
The basic unit of urban functional zone identification mainly includes the grid, block, traffic analysis zone (TAZ), clustering unit, geoscene, and building unit (Figure 4). (1) Grid: the image is divided into a grid with square cells [43,44]; (2) block: the research area is divided into blocks with irregular geometric size using urban road network data [45,46]; (3) TAZ: the area is divided based on the urban traffic flow, considering the landform, road distribution, administrative division, and sampling convenience [2,47]; (4) clustering unit: the unit, such as Voronoi cell, is formed by clustering location-based service data [4,48]; (5) geoscene: the optimal boundary of the functional zone is obtained by multi-scale segmentation, resulting in the geoscene (image object) used as the basic unit [49,50]; (6) building unit: taking buildings as the basic object of urban space cognition, the identification of functional zones can be completed by identifying the functions of buildings [51]. In addition, a few studies using administrative district or cadastral parcel as basic units on urban functional zone classification [52,53].
The statistics for the number of articles that used 6-unit types are shown in Figure 5. Among these articles, 25 articles used the grid, 30 adopted the block, 12 used the TAZ, 11 adopted the clustering unit, 13 used the geoscene, and 4 adopted the building unit. Besides, articles that take macro administrative district and others as the basic unit and use multi-unit for comparative analysis were not considered in the statistical analysis [54,55].
The grid unit is a straightforward basic unit. However, the shape and size of the units differ from the real boundaries of the functional zones, reducing the accuracy of urban functional zone identification [43,56]. A block is a homogeneous unit, but under-segmentation may occur. A block may contain multiple functional zones, which cannot be determined [46,57]. The TAZ is a unit based on geographic information or mobile data. Due to the limitation of data sources, the application scope of this unit is limited [41,58]. The clustering unit is determined by the radiation range of location-based data. In underdeveloped areas, the density of location-based data is low, and there are only one or several clustering units in a large area of land, reducing the identification accuracy [48,59]. The geoscene represents actual objects. It has the advantages of describing heterogeneous areas, automatic segmentation of functional areas, the extraction of functional zones at multiple scales, and providing highly accurate functional zone boundaries. However, this method requires the selection of multi-scale parameters, and the segmentation process is relatively complex [49,60]. The building unit is a more detailed space unit. However, its outline cannot cover the whole urban area and the functional type of the building is easy to be misclassified or cannot be identified when the data support is weak [61].
3. Identification and Division of Urban Functional Zones
The methods of classification and identification for urban functional zone are the focus of scholars. According to the chronological order and difficulty, it is divided into the following five categories. Traditional methods: the division of urban functional zones is based on statistical data, expert knowledge, and land use/land cover extracted from remote sensing images. Density analysis: the classification of urban functional zones is based on the density of data in the unit. Cluster analysis: the identification of urban functional zones is realized by clustering and classifying the shallow features of the data. Advanced framework: the urban functional zones are identified by mining potential information or multi-level features of data. Deep learning: the urban functional zones are classified and identified by using deep learning models to extract deep features.
3.1. Urban Functional Zone Division Based on Traditional Methods
Initially, urban functional zone division was performed using qualitative methods, such as statistical surveys and expert knowledge. Huang, et al. [62] analyzed the questionnaire survey information of the public and experts, and finally realized the division of urban functional zones based on public will. Gu, et al. [19] made the function-oriented zone on NET and Geomedia platforms using cadastral data and Delaunay triangulation and Graham methods. Methods based on expert knowledge are limited by statistical data and may be time-consuming and labor-intensive, strong subjectivity, and difficult to prove the accuracy of results.
The use of remote sensing image data can provide detailed information on ground objects [63,64], and dynamic monitoring of urban land-use change can be achieved by analyzing remote sensing images in different periods [65]. A remote sensing intelligent geo-interpretation model (RSIGIM) that includes multi-source remotely sensed data and ancillary geographic data were used to perform land-cover/land-use classification in Hong Kong [66]. In addition, some scholars used object-oriented segmentation and hierarchical classification to extract information on intra-urban land use, detect urban land-use change, and classify intra-urban land based on the functional characteristics using visual interpretation [67]. Remote sensing images provide rich information on the physical features of cities but lack information on functional interaction patterns and the socioeconomic environment. In addition, the timeliness of the images may not be adequate.
3.2. Urban Functional Zone Division Based on Density Analysis
Some scholars identified urban functional zones using density analysis based on urban static data (such as road network data and POI data) since remote sensing data do not adequately reflect urban socioeconomic functions. Chi, et al. [33] quantitatively analyzed urban functional zones by calculating the density of POI data in the grid, and mixed functional zones were visually described. Other scholars used this method to determine the influence of the number of grids on the identification of urban functional zones. The results showed that the classification of mixed functional zones in the Xicheng District of Beijing was more accurate when a 25 × 25 spatial grid was used than a 50 × 50 spatial grid [68]. Kang, et al. [34] assigned scores to different levels of POI data and identified urban functional districts by calculating the POI density scores of block units. Wang, et al. [45] considered the spatial autocorrelation of POI data and used kernel density estimation (KDE) to weaken the discretization phenomenon of the POI data (Figure 6). The authors calculated the quadrat density of the POI data in the block to improve the identification accuracy of mixed functional zones. On this basis, some studies conducted comparative experiments of different kernel density bandwidths. A larger kernel density bandwidth increased the influence range of the POI points and the mixing degree of the functional zones [69].
Yu, et al. [70] used POI data to analyze and delineate the central business district (CBD) using network KDE. Gu, et al. [71] used KDE and head/tail breaks to analyze POI data and identify the spatial distribution and interaction of different functional districts. Huang, et al. [72] used urban road network data and POI data and divided the urban functional zones using kriging interpolation and network KDE. Wang and Dai [73] calculated the density of POI data in each block and used SPSS software to perform principal component analysis (PCA) on the standardized block density. Comprehensive indicators were selected to describe the characteristics of the functional zones and visualize the results. Zhao, et al. [74] used the term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF–IDF) statistical method to identify urban functional regions based on POI data. Cao, et al. [75] performed automatic classification of a large number of buildings into different functional types using the weighted frequency density ratio of each POI data type inside and within a distance to a building, improving the traditional quantitative identification of urban functional zones. The classification method based on density analysis is easy to understand. It mainly relies on processing platforms such as ArcGIS or SPSS to realize fast and efficient classification of urban functional zones [56]. However, since most of them only consider single data (POI), there is room for improvement in the accuracy of these division methods [38,58].
3.3. Urban Functional Zone Division Based on Cluster Analysis
Cluster analysis refers to feature extraction of static or dynamic urban data (such as cell phone data, traffic travel data, and check-in data) to partition urban functional land and identify functional zones according to the functional characteristics of the region or the temporal and spatial characteristics of human mobility. K-means algorithm is a common clustering method in urban functional zone identification. Many studies use different data based on this method to classify urban functional zones, such as mobile phone data [23,76], taxi GPS data [77], and check-in data [78], etc. The advantages of this method are fast speed, simple calculation, and excellent clustering effect, but the number of clusters (K) needs to be manually determined and the initial cluster center has a great influence on the clustering effect [79]. The K-medoids method is different from the central point selection of K-means, which involves lower data requirements than K-means. Chen, et al. [80] proposed a dynamic time warping (DTW) distance-based k-medoids method to delineate urban functional zones with building-level social media data. Partition around medoids (PAM) is the basic algorithm of K-medoids. The results show that the PAM algorithm can be applied to the identification of urban functional areas, and the identification accuracy of functional areas is up to 86% [81]. Fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) is the extension of K-means. Besides the number of clusters, the selection of weighted index also has a certain influence on the clustering result. Jiang, et al. [4] and Xiao, et al. [82] used fuzzy c-means clustering to identify urban regions with different functions from POI data and successfully divided and analyzed urban areas. Spectral clustering is generally superior to K-means. Frias-Martinez and Frias-Martinez [83] used a spectral clustering algorithm and self-organizing map (SOM) to classify land use in urban areas by clustering geographical regions with similar tweeting activity patterns. Gaussian mixture model (GMM) can provide stronger description ability than K-means. Song, et al. [84] distinguished urban functional zones by integrating GPS movement trajectories and an unsupervised Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Jiang, et al. [31] improved this method and designed a multi-feature weighted decision algorithm based on call detail records (CDR) data to identify urban functional zones with a supervised GMM. When the dataset is dense, the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) algorithm can be considered. It does not need to input the number of clusters and can find outliers while clustering [79]. Pan, et al. [28] used the iterative DBSCAN algorithm to extract functional zones and manually labeled the features of taxi GPS traces to classify land use. A support vector machine (SVM) was used, achieving a recognition accuracy of 95%. Ordering points to identify the clustering structure (OPTICS) clustering is similar to DBSCAN, but in particular, it can obtain clusters of different densities. Ning, et al. [26] combined the spatial correlation and semantic information of POI data with location-based check-in data and proposed a feature model of POI data that considered human activity characteristics by OPTICS. Zhong, et al. [85] used an ant colony clustering algorithm to divide urban block functions based on the activity characteristics of smart card data (SCD) and the POI category information. This method has high optimization performance, but a slow convergence speed.
The classifier classifies the source data based on the class knowledge formed by the training samples. K-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm is one of the simplest classification algorithms. Jin, et al. [86] used the MapReduce framework from the Hadoop platform to realize the KNN parallel algorithm by writing java language and classified urban land use types in the travel zone based on the time sequence characteristics of the residents’ call volume reflected in the CDR data. Logistic regression is a common algorithm model for binary classification. Feng, et al. [87] used a logistic regression model to determine urban functional zones based on the category proportions of the POIs after autocorrelation processing. This approach avoided the limitation of identifying functional zones only based on the POI ranking and yielded high identification accuracy. Liu and Long [88] considered the properties of adjacent parcels, such as the size and compactness and the point density of POI data and determined the model parameters through logistic regression. A cellular automata (CA) model was used to identify the parcels automatically. Classification tree is robust and extensible to abnormal data. Liu, et al. [27] used a classification tree method and verified that the characteristics of taxi trajectory data are closely associated with various land-use types and intensities. When the depth of the decision tree is too large, over-fitting phenomenon may occur. In order to solve it, random forest (RF) can be used. Toole, et al. [24] used the random forest algorithm to identify clusters of locations with similar zones and mobile phone activity patterns to understand the land-use pattern in Boston. Xu and Yang [89] proposed a word vector model that integrated POI and check-in data and used the co-location quotient method and KDE to obtain weighted feature vectors to identify urban functional zones. Some studies used SQL Server to process travel data and matched the functional zones with the actual land use utilizing the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm [2,90,91]. The efficiency and quality of most clustering algorithms are well performed when they are implemented based on C/C++, java, MATLAB, and Python, which can provide good identification accuracy for urban functional zones [92]. However, for some complex and heterogeneous urban areas, these methods using shallow features of data may have poor classification accuracy.
3.4. Urban Functional Zone Division Based on an Advanced Framework
Since classical methods do not provide sufficient accuracy for identifying urban functional zones in heterogeneous scenes, some scholars used data mining methods to extract the semantics of the data. For example, topic models, such as probabilistic latent semantic analysis (pLSA) and latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), have been used to generate latent semantics for scene classification and describe urban functional zones according to object features and functional categories. Yuan, et al. [29] used LDA to establish a discovers regions of different functions (DRoF) framework and implemented their method on a 64-bit server with a Quad-Core 2.67 G CPU and 16 GB RAM with a total of 1394 min. Chen, et al. [93] established LDA and Dirichlet polynomial regression (DMR) based on the Mallet platform to process the mobility pattern. The OPTICS clustering method was employed to process the results of the LDA and DMR and identify different functional regions. Some scholars found that the uncertain parameters in the LDA affected the final classification results of urban functional zones [94], and the object bank based on object semantics had strong robustness and interpretability [95]. Zhang, et al. [96] proposed a novel cognitive structure of urban functional zone recognition called hierarchical semantic cognition (HSC), which relies on geographic cognition and considers four semantic layers and the hierarchical relationship between the semantic layers. Experimental results showed that this method produced more accurate results than the SVM and LDA. If a bottom-up classification is used in HSC, the identification results of the urban functional zones are affected by the inaccurate information in the bottom layers. Therefore, an innovative framework that uses iterative optimization by integrating bottom-up and top-down processes was proposed to improve the classification accuracy of urban functional zones and land cover types [97].
3.5. Urban Functional Zone Division Based on Deep Learning
Deep learning can effectively extract high-level feature information from remote sensing images. Yao, et al. [47] used the greedy algorithm and Google Word2Vec to extract high-dimensional characteristic vectors from the POI data and TAZs to classify urban land use. Some scholars found that it is important to consider the linear relationship between POIs and the nonlinear spatial relationship between a given POI and the surrounding POIs. Yan, et al. [98] took into account the spatial relationship between POI data and extended the Word2Vac model to the Place2Vac model. Zhai, et al. [99] used the Place2Vac model to identify urban functional regions and implemented the model in Tensor-Flow based on the Mini-Batch Gradient Descent. However, this method had a high acquisition cost and was time-consuming. Zheng, et al. [100] improved the method and achieved low-cost, efficient, and accurate functional zone identification. Chen, et al. [101] used the spatial co-location model method to determine the nonlinear spatial relationship of POIs. The comparative experimental results proved that the recognition accuracy of the functional regions was higher for this method than the Place2Vec method. Xu, et al. [102] used the deep semantic segmentation network D-Link Net to extract buildings to calculate the building level metrics based on the Baidu PaddlePaddle open-source framework and Senta sentiment analysis system. Multisource heterogeneous data were integrated to identify the categories of functional zones, and sentiment analysis was conducted to characterize typical functional zones.
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used recently for urban functional zone identification due to their strong ability to extract image features and excellent performance in image segmentation and geographic object-based image analysis (GEOBIA). Deep learning methods require massive amounts of training data to determine the network parameters and perform automatic learning of the features. Zhong, et al. [103] proposed the large-patch CNN (LPCNN) model to address the problem of insufficient markers in remote sensing images (Fan et al., 2015). This model expands the training data of small-scale remote sensing image data set. Castelluccio, et al. [104] used CNN and remote sensing images to classify land use. Ma, et al. [105] compared three CNN training methods for land use and land cover classification, i.e., full training, fine-tuning, and pre-training, and concluded that fine-tuning of the pre-trained CNN network model provided the best results. Zhou, et al. [49] used the AlexNet model and Dropout technology to avoid over-fitting and reduce the scale effect and realized fine classification of urban functional zones by Super Object (SO). Bao, et al. [51] used the deep-feature convolutional neural network (DFCNN) to mine building physical semantics and social function semantics, which selected TensorFlow1.7 as the deep learning framework on the Ubuntu 16.04 operating system. The proposed model detected urban functional zones more effectively and accurately, compared with Alex Net and random forest. Deep learning is well suitable for extracting high-level information, and its migration and scalability have unlimited potential for urban functional zone identification and analysis. Thus, this method is worthy of further exploration.
The identification and division methods of urban functional zones in the above articles are summarized in Table 1.
4. Classification Schemes for Urban Functional Zones
According to the review, it is found that there are differences in the classification schemes formed in the study of urban functional zones. The classification schemes related to urban functional zones are summarized in Table 2. There are classification schemes for classifying urban areas in national standards. The “Urban land intensive utilization potential evaluation regulation (Trial)” defined the following classes of urban land: specific function land, residential land, commercial land, industrial land, and land with educational institutions based on the dominant function [106]. Urban planners are focused on land use and typically adopt the classification scheme in the “Standard for Basic Terminology of Urban Planning”. This scheme includes residential land, industrial land, public facilities, municipal utilities, road and squares, intercity transportation land, warehouse land, specially-designated land, green space, water, and miscellaneous [107]. In addition, some urban planning also has classification schemes for zoning urban areas, such as the regulatory plan [108], the constructive-detailed plan [109], and the main functional area planning [110].
In recent studies, many classification schemes of urban functional zones were defined by the main nature of land use, and then adjusted according to the characteristics of data sources. It can be divided into using functional characteristics, trajectory characteristics, image characteristics, and mixing characteristics (including the combination of functional characteristics and other characteristics) (Figure 7). (1) Functional characteristics: residential areas, industrial areas, commercial areas, public management and public service areas, green space and squares, road and traffic facility areas [33,34,45,74,87]. (2) Trajectory characteristics: residential areas, industrial parks and office areas, commercial and leisure areas, and nightlife areas [23,24,85]. (3) Image characteristics: commercial office zones, urban green zones, industrial warehouse zones, and residential zones [49,57]. (4) Functional and trajectory characteristics: developed residential areas, emerging residential areas, scenic areas, commercial and entertainment areas, science/education/technology areas, and areas designated for development [2,29,90]. (5) Functional and image characteristics: urban green zones, industrial districts, public services, shanty towns, residential districts, schools, commercial districts, and hospitals [51,96,97].
In addition, some scholars classified the functional zones from the perspectives of the social environment. Yan [13] separated urban areas into economic and non-economic functional areas according to regional economic differences. The latter refers to areas not directly related to economic activities, such as residential areas and administrative areas. Economic functional zones include commercial areas, business areas, industrial areas, and tourist areas. Some cities, such as the capital, have special urban functions. Liu and Peng [111] divided Beijing’s urban areas into 10 functional zones, including capital administrative areas, central commercial areas, financial and business areas, historical preservation areas, transportation hub areas, cultural and entertainment areas, hospitals, schools and other crowded areas, public leisure areas, and residential areas. Zhang [112] divided the city into four zones: ecological conservation development areas, new urban development areas, urban function expansion areas, and capital functional core areas.
5. Discussion
The rational allocation of urban space can improve the urban land use efficiency, resulting in promoting the harmonious development of regional economy and environment. Many studies have discussed the classification, distribution, and driving factors of urban functional zones, which provides references for urban spatial structure examination, land use planning verification, and urban functional form optimization. Although there are some achievements in urban functional zones studies, limitations still existing.
(1). Because of inhomogeneous data in urban areas, it is difficult to identify functional zones in some areas with poor data, which affects the accuracy of functional zone identification. Moreover, the processing of block is insufficient refinement. Due to the different road network densities within the area, it is necessary to explore the method of block processing that is adaptive for distinct regions.
(2). Due to the structural and functional similarities with residential buildings, campus dormitories are easily misclassified. Furthermore, the existing identification methods of urban functional zones are not highly automated, and the accuracy verification of identification results is not scientific enough.
(3). No classification criteria can better meet the research needs. On the one hand, there is no unified standard for urban functional zone classification. On the other hand, the indicators of existing relevant standards and regulations are not advanced, the emerging data such as POI data are ignored.
The analysis of this paper shows that the adaptive division of research units and the integration of multisource data are required for the effective and accurate classification of urban functional zones. More 3D data should also be considered with high precision and accessibility, which could contribute to the division of urban functional zones. It is necessary to explore the identification methods for urban functional zones with better versatility and interpretability. The classification scheme of urban functional zones including mixed functional zones is closer to real life. How to make the indicators that would be used to determine the mixing degree more diversified and standardized is the focus of future research.
6. Conclusions
An in-depth study of urban functional zones is of great significance for improving urban planning and layout and alleviating urban problems. This paper reviews important studies on urban functional zone classification and identification in detail. Firstly, we describe the overview and current status of urban functional zone studies. Block is a popular unit in the application of the functional zone. Point of interest (POI) data are widely used in the identification of a functional zone. Then, the methods of urban functional zone identification are analyzed. Clustering is a mainstream method that can identify urban functional zones rapidly and effectively. Topic model and deep learning are more advantageous for complex and heterogeneous urban scenes. Finally, we summarize the classification schemes of urban functional zones and find that most of them are designed according to land use and the characteristics of data sources.
This review provides a quick overview of urban functional zone studies and some practical references for application. However, there are some disadvantages. Due to manual screening and classification, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, the number of papers screened is limited. Meanwhile, the results may be affected by the subjective influence of statisticians leading to low repeatability. We hope that there will be a high-accuracy algorithm or literature statistical tool in the future that can identify the applied information in the article instead of the manual screening.

Abstract
Urbanization is accelerating due to economic and societal development. The accurate identification of urban functional zones is significant for urban structure optimization, urban planning, and resource allocation. This paper reviews the scholarly literature on urban functional zone identification. Based on the retrieval results of databases, we analyzed the overview and current status. The identification methods and classification schemes are summarized from the existing research. The following results were obtained: (1) point of interest (POI) data are widely used for functional zone identification; (2) the block is the most common unit for functional zone identification; (3) cluster analysis is the main approach for urban functional zone identification; (4) most of the classification schemes are based on the dominant land use and characteristics of data sources. We predict future trends of urban functional zone identification based on the reviewed literature. Our findings are expected to be valuable for urban studies.
