Visual analytics of graffiti spatial patterns across 30 European city centres
Graffiti as an urban phenomenon comes in different forms and materials, from simple spray slogans to wall paintings and art, containing multi-thematic content. Despite the contradictory nature of various literature opinions, reports of a positive association between wall-graffiti and fear of crime or streetscape value have emerged. However, comparative urban studies registering graffiti locations are non-existent, thereby hindering the benchmarki…
Quantifying and visualizing the 15-Minute walkable city concept across Europe
The disruptions associated with health and energy crisis have emphasized the need for hyperlocal cities. However, in Europe, a tool to measure the efficiency of land use and accessibility planning for localizing urban mobility is missing. In this paper, we construct a comparable 15-Minute-Walking City (15-MWC) index that assesses the walking performance of 121 European metropolitan areas and seven amenity types. The data are combined equally foll…
Global microscale walkability ratings and rankings
Several walkability studies have focused primarily on macro-level environmental factors. Nevertheless, previous research has shown that street-level design can also support walking. In this paper, we present a novel Microscale Walkability Index, ‘MWI’, that measures, ranks, and analyses the pedestrian-friendliness levels of 59 heterogeneous city centres in 26 European countries. We selected 26 case studies from European capitals and 33 city centr…
Kje bi bilo treba izboljšati območja za pešce? Razvrščanje in kartiranje posegov za izboljšanje ulične hodljivosti v središču Cape Towna
Prostorsko urejanje območij za pešce, ki zagotavlja bolj zdravo in vključujočo ulično krajino, je lahko močan mehanizem za izboljšanje varnosti in udobnosti pešačenja v afriških mestih. Avtorja v članku predlagata pristop k analizi hodljivosti na več prostorskih ravneh, s katerim se lahko določijo ulice, primerne za pešce, in problematična območja, ki zahtevajo manjše izboljšave (npr. popravilo pločnikov, boljše vzdrževanje stavb ter ureditev uli…
Where to improve pedestrian streetscapes
Pedestrian interventions for healthier and more inclusive streetscapes can be powerful mechanisms to increase the safety and comfort of walking in African cities. This article proposes a multiscale walkability analysis approach to identify both suitable streets for pedestrian travel and problematic areas requiring small-scale improvements (e.g., pavement repairs, building maintenance, streetlights, and public seating). We applied a GIS-based fram…
