It elaborates on and applies land asset management theory to propose solutions for funding challenges in urban village transformation, suggests a "bottom-up" approach with the village as the main actor, and conducts an empirical analysis of the transformation of an urban village in Guangzhou. In terms of research methods, modern cadastral techniques and methods are fully utilized to collect, organize, and analyze a large amount of data on the current land use status of urban villages in Guangzhou.
