Abstract

Urban blue space offers substantial health benefits by encouraging population physical activity. Despite much evidence on the nature-health nexus, the relationship between blue space and recreational exercises remains under-studied, limiting the realisation of health benefits in blue space design. Using crowdsourced data, including volunteered geographic information and street view image data, this study investigates the associations of blue space quality with recreational running and cycling in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Results show that recreational exercise levels on street segments vary based on the blue space type and design. Compared to inland canals and rivers, small-scale recreational waterbodies are more conducive to running but not cycling, while both activities tend to cluster around the Nieuwe Maas River. Interestingly, the Water View Index shows a general negative association with both activities after adjusting for the blue space type. Besides the waterbody characteristics, eye-level environmental factors, including higher Green View Index, lower building density, more diverse land use, greater connected street network and fewer traffic elements, are associated with more running and cycling exercises. Results for visual complexity and neighbourhood population composition are mixed depending on the exercise type. These findings are further translated into spatial design patterns for developing exercise-supportive and health-promoting blue spaces.

健康的城市蓝色空间设计:利用众包数据探索蓝色空间质量与休闲跑步和骑自行车的关系
城市蓝色空间通过鼓励人们进行体育锻炼而为健康带来巨大益处。尽管有很多证据表明自然与健康之间存在联系,但对蓝色空间与休闲锻炼之间关系的研究仍然不足,这限制了蓝色空间设计对健康益处的实现。本研究利用众包数据(包括自愿提供的地理信息和街景图像数据),调查了荷兰鹿特丹蓝色空间质量与休闲跑步和骑自行车之间的关系。结果表明,街道上的休闲运动水平因蓝色空间类型和设计而异。与内陆运河和河流相比,小型休闲水体更有利于跑步,但不利于骑自行车,而这两项活动往往集中在新马斯河周围。有趣的是,在对蓝色空间类型进行调整后,水景指数与这两种活动普遍呈负相关。除水体特征外,包括较高的绿色景观指数、较低的建筑密度、更多样化的土地利用、更大的街道网络连接以及较少的交通要素在内的眼观环境因素也与更多的跑步和骑自行车运动有关。视觉复杂性和社区人口构成的结果因运动类型而异。这些发现将进一步转化为空间设计模式,用于开发支持锻炼和促进健康的蓝色空间。

期刊介绍: Sustainable Cities and Society (SCS) is an international journal that focuses on fundamental and applied research to promote environmentally sustainable and socially resilient cities. The journal welcomes cross-cutting, multi-disciplinary research in various areas, including: 1. Smart cities and resilient environments; 2. Alternative/clean energy sources, energy distribution, distributed energy generation, and energy demand reduction/management; 3. Monitoring and improving air quality in built environment and cities (e.g., healthy built environment and air quality management); 4. Energy efficient, low/zero carbon, and green buildings/communities; 5. Climate change mitigation and adaptation in urban environments; 6. Green infrastructure and BMPs; 7. Environmental Footprint accounting and management; 8. Urban agriculture and forestry; 9. ICT, smart grid and intelligent infrastructure; 10. Urban design/planning, regulations, legislation, certification, economics, and policy; 11. Social aspects, impacts and resiliency of cities; 12. Behavior monitoring, analysis and change within urban communities; 13. Health monitoring and improvement; 14. Nexus issues related to sustainable cities and societies; 15. Smart city governance; 16. Decision Support Systems for trade-off and uncertainty analysis for improved management of cities and society; 17. Big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence applications and case studies; 18. Critical infrastructure protection, including security, privacy, forensics, and reliability issues of cyber-physical systems. 19. Water footprint reduction and urban water distribution, harvesting, treatment, reuse and management; 20. Waste reduction and recycling; 21. Wastewater collection, treatment and recycling; 22. Smart, clean and healthy transportation systems and infrastructure;
