The urban physical environment and leisure-time physical activity in early midlife
Under the exposome framework, this study examined the relationship between the urban physical environment and leisure-time physical activity during early midlife based on 394 participants (mean age: 37, range 34-40) from the FinnTwin12 cohort, residing in five major Finnish cities in 2020. We curated 145 urban physical exposures based on residential addresses and measured three outcomes: total leisure-time physical activity (total LTPA) and two s…
How well do NDVI and OpenStreetMap data capture people’s visual perceptions of urban greenspace
The study of urban greenspaces typically relies on three types of data: people’s subjective perceptions collected via questionnaires, vegetation indices derived from satellite imagery, such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and Land Use or Land Cover maps, such as OpenStreetMap (OSM). Data on people’s perceptions are essential when researching human activities, yet they scale poorly. NDVI and OSM data, on the other hand, are f…
Bridging or separating? Co-accessibility as a measure of potential place-based encounters
Accessibility is a widely used concept across various disciplines to evaluate the degree to which individuals can reach desired destinations. Conventionally, accessibility is determined by the attractiveness of a destination and the associated travel cost to reach it. However, existing place-based accessibility measures do not differentiate between destinations accessible to individuals from a single demographic group and those accessible to indi…
Measuring spatial age segregation through the lens of co-accessibility to urban activities
A growing body of literature underscores the societal and mental health benefits of facilitating interactions between different age groups. While it is acknowledged that age segregation might be experienced in daily activities beyond an individual's home location, the majority of spatial age segregation studies and corresponding measures are almost exclusively based on the concentration and distribution of age groups at the neighborhood level as …
Assessing the influence of point-of-interest features on the classification of place categories
Points of interest (POIs) digitally represent real-world amenities as point locations. POI categories (e.g. restaurant, hotel, museum etc.) play a prominent role in several location-based applications such as social media, navigation, recommender systems, geographic information retrieval tools, and travel-related services. The majority of user queries in these applications center around POI categories. For instance, people often search for the cl…
Assessing equitable access in X-minute cities through open spatial data
There is a growing emphasis on active transport, prompting cities to be redesigned as more pedestrian-friendly environments. This shift has fueled interest in proximity-based planning models, such as the X-minute city, which are increasingly promoted for their potential public health and environmental benefits. However, equity considerations in the assessment of such models are often neglected or rely on local datasets that limit broader applicab…
