Rethinking the Urban Form and Quality of Walking Experience Using Geospatial Technology
This study represents the service area analysis for a school-going community scenario in North American context. It focuses over the prevalent street typology and its impact over urban form and quality and safety of walking experience. The main emphasis is on the use of GIS walkshed analysis tool to address underlying problems with urban form and planning. The idea underlines the interdependence between urban form and walkability scenario. Based on the GIS spatial analysis, the findings are interpreted to offer design improvements and enhance pedestrian experience. This study will be useful to support future planning proposals, which intend to develop opportunities for expanding activities that encourage walkability and pedestrian accessibility in a community-scale urban intervention. This approach offers insights to city planners, environmental designers, public health practitioners, strategist for pedestrian enhancement programs and engineers, who are striving to achieve sustainability principles for land use and mobility planning.
