An increasing number of studies aim to improve and perfect the evaluation system for assessing greenspace exposure, yet it may also become more difficult apply index landscape planning. Here we propose a simple but actionable – Greenspace Exposure Inequity (GEII), inequity residents' exposure. GEII includes quantity-based availability, distance-based accessibility, inequity-based Gini difference in exposure pattern. Then selected Shanghai as case test feasibility GEII, analyzing spatiotemporal evolution patterns, further demonstrating operability index.

It can be clearly seen that has changed less over ten years, overall equality been rising.

Measuring spatial inequality of urban park accessibility and utilisation: A case study of public housing developments in Auckland, New Zealand

Landscape and Urban Planning, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 247, С. 105070 - 105070

Poor spatial accessibility of urban green spaces affects disadvantaged populations, who are at greater risk socioeconomic related health inequalities. We analyse mobile phone locational data from the Auckland Region New Zealand to connect a user's 'home' location nearby parks, specifically focusing on public housing tenants - highly vulnerable group use number traditional measures and four new park utilisation analyses explore relationship between neighbourhood area deprivation, patterns actual usage. develop metrics assist in understanding available residents: distance closest visited (DAT), used opportunities (UPO), locality visits (LPV), nearest visitation rate (NPVR). found that neighbourhoods with most tend have lower parks accessible, those accessible smaller size. Additionally, people living these areas travel farther access compared no housing. More deprived were revealed greens Auckland, highlighting urgency address emerging divisions for neighbourhoods. Our findings important implications policy-makers planners. Furthermore, can reveal insights into mobility behaviour users be applied other locations population groups.

Exploring park visitation trends during the Covid-19 pandemic in Hungary by using mobile device location data

Scientific Reports, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 13(1)

Опубликована: Июль 8, 2023

Abstract Sweeping changes in park visitation have accompanied the Covid-19 pandemic. In countries where governments imposed strict lockdowns during first wave, declined cities. The benefits of visiting urban green spaces on people’s mental and physical health well-being are generally acknowledged; many people confinement reported increasing issues. Therefore, based lessons learned from pandemic’s parks other remained open most subsequent pandemic phases. Furthermore, studies an overall increase after wave been removed. This study aims to investigate trends Hungary a dataset 28 million location data points approximately 666,000 distinct mobile devices collected 1884 191 settlements between June 1, 2019, May 31, 2021. Findings demonstrate that increased inter-wave period 2020, compared pre-pandemic decreased Waves 2–3 2021, Wave 1 2020.

Abstract Although many studies have examined social inequalities related to urban parks, there is limited knowledge about the of park use during crises. By integrating a large amount mobile phone data and e-commerce user data, this study tracked 81,350 anonymized individuals’ behavior in Shenzhen, China, from 2019 2021, covering period before after start COVID-19 pandemic. Results reveal that while most parks saw reduction over 50% number visitors, some especially relatively small remote had more visitors pandemic began than before. In addition, has caused residents’ time decrease such impacts are severe vulnerable groups (e.g., females, elderly, juveniles, low-income groups). Moreover, significant between rich poor communities, slightly exacerbated these inequalities. The highlighted with an effective way unveil complex behind human behavior. Findings could help improve equality as well providing insights for evidence-informed decision-making post-pandemic recovery future

Urban parks, integral to city life, have long contributed the well-being of residents through various ecosystem services. Previous studies consistently highlighted unequal park distribution and access, COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated these disparities. From a spatial justice perspective, this review examines urban parks’ roles during pandemic, impact on equity how evolving usage characteristics inform future management challenges. Analysing 53 peer-reviewed 11 online materials from January 2020 April 2023, reveals significant increase in visitors causing challenges accommodating surge due lockdown measures. The findings underscore physical social dimensions, revealing disparities access COVID-19. These prompt reevaluating potential for benefits, advocating inclusive decision-making enhance community resilience socialisation. crisis planning challenges, emphasising need more sustainable, liveable, responsive approach planning.
