The spatial deployment of urban public electric vehicle charging stations (PEVCSs) plays a pivotal role in the widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). However, with the rapid advancements in EV technology and battery capabilities, substantial improvements in both range and charging efficiency have emerged and are expected to continue experiencing sustained growth. This situation underscores the urgent necessity of establishing dynamic metrics to reconsider the existing static charging infrastructure, aiming to ameliorate the current severe spatial imbalances and supply–demand disparities encountered in the deployment of PEVCSs. In this study, we harnessed and analyzed 84,152 sets of authentic data, fine-tuned through geospatial-aggregation technology, and ensured anonymity. Our findings bridged users’ residential and occupational patterns with their charging propensities. Comparing these with the spatial distribution of current charging stations revealed that Beijing and Shenzhen’s infrastructure aligned with the cities' economic, educational, and residential zones, epitomizing a synergy in provisioning. However, certain areas experienced either a demand–supply imbalance or an oversupply. To address these challenges, we introduced the Charging Access Reachability Index (CARI) using machine learning techniques. This dynamic metric serves as a tool for quantifying the effective coverage range of charging facilities. Its adaptive threshold holds potential as a crucial indicator enabling the dynamic transition towards more efficient and resilient charging infrastructure.

Co-creation of urban data and informatics with community partners facilitates the development of insights and actions that are grounded in residents’ experiences and aimed at achieving social change. Despite rising interest in co-creation strategies, instructive guidance on implementation remains scarce. To address the shortage of instructive guidance, we provide a detailed account of how the resident, community, and institutional partners in the Healthy Neighborhoods Study co-created a dataset on neighborhood health, and a data dashboard that allows for all partners, as well as the public, to access and use the data to support neighborhood-level action and regional planning. We focus on the collaborative and iterative design process used to co-create a digital tool to access, analyze, interpret, and communicate community-generated data. While co-creation strategies require an upfront investment in relationship building and facilitating a more complex process, they carry significant benefits in producing truly representative datasets and data tools and services that advance data inclusion, laying the foundation for social change.

A range of accessibility indicators has been developed in the past decade to evaluate equity in transportation within urban areas. Some studies have attempted to incorporate them in transport poverty metrics, focussing on insufficient access to general services and employment. While accessibility measures coupled with statistics have been effective in assessing immediate households’ vulnerability, we argue that an analysis of their adaptive capacity could contribute to a better information of local policies in the long term. This paper aims to develop a methodology for mapping transport poverty risks at the metropolitan scale, while studying the relation between urban segregation and the transport divide. We use the case study of Lyon to operationalise our method and find evidence of vulnerability patterns previously identified in the sociological literature. Beyond the sensitivity of households living in the first-crown neighbourhoods and the growing exposure of medium-income families settling in peripheral municipalities, we emphasise the importance of using mixed methodologies to better capture households’ needs and mobility choices within suburban environments. We conclude by discussing shortcomings and future developments of our research.

Accessibility and mobility are key concerns of sustainable cities, especially in the Global South, due to the strong social inequalities. This paper contributes to the literature on mobility segregation by focusing on the potential movement of social groups in the city. We conceptualize potential movement as a network centrality, acting as an indicator of population movement when performing daily activities (working, studying, shopping, etc.). This paper’s objectives are (a) to identify the inequalities in potential movement of different social groups performing their daily activities; (b) to propose a network-based method to enhance our understanding of mobility inequalities; and (c) to address the context of medium-sized Latin American cities. We adopt a modified Betweenness Centrality model (Potential Movement) on a directed and weighted network. Our results show a similar pattern for both cities, with the CBD concentrating the potential movement for all groups; however, several inequalities were found. The high-income and white groups show higher levels of potential movement in the CBD and the low-income and non-white groups have a more distributed potential movement pattern, implying longer journeys to reach jobs and services. Income and race have shown to play a crucial role in those inequalities.

This paper outlines the creation of the London Output Area Classification (LOAC) from the 2021 Census, set within the broader context of geodemographic classification systems in the United Kingdom. The LOAC 2021 was developed in collaboration with the Greater London Authority (GLA) and offers an enhanced, statistically robust typology adept at capturing the unique spatial, socio-economic and built characteristics of London’s residential neighbourhoods. The paper asserts the critical importance of nuanced, area-specific geodemographic classifications for urban areas with unique geography relative to the national extent.

The scaling relations between city attributes and population are emergent and ubiquitous aspects of urban growth. Quantifying these relations and understanding their theoretical foundation, however, is difficult due to the challenge of defining city boundaries and a lack of historical data to study city dynamics over time and space. To address this issue, we analyze scaling between city infrastructure and population across 857 metropolitan areas in the conterminous United States over an unprecedented 115 years (1900–2015) using dasymetrically refined historical population estimates, historical urban road network models, and multi-temporal settlement data to define dynamic city boundaries. We demonstrate that urban scaling exponents closely match theoretical models over a century. Despite some close quantitative agreement with theory, the empirical scaling relations unexpectedly vary across regions. Our analysis of scaling coefficients, meanwhile, reveals that contemporary cities use more developed land and kilometers of road than cities of similar population in 1900, which has serious implications for urban development and impacts on the local environment. Overall, our results provide a new way to study urban systems based on novel, geohistorical data.

Large-scale socioeconomic vulnerability models commonly used in flood hazard assessments grapple with data limitations and struggle to fully capture diversity in vulnerability and resilience stemming from America’s sociopolitical history. In response, we developed a prototype for a place-based Flood Resilience Assessment Index (FRAI) using tract-level geographies that illustrates human-centric frameworks for quantifying flood resilience in the U.S. For these purposes, we define flood resilience as the likelihood a tract will rebound from a flood disaster. This framework can be used in tandem with flood risk models. We employ mixed methods in geospatial processing, including dasymetric interpolation and network analysis to model access. We also standardize variables by percentage to enable temporal analyses and equity-centered narrative framing. While the resulting scores for a five-county pilot study correlate with those of leading vulnerability indices, FRAI leverages diverse data sources and novel methods to represent the changing landscapes, resources, and needs of urban cores and growing suburbs. Future trajectories for FRAI will continue to define and refine methods for diverse datasets, employ participatory methods for emergency managers and residents of flood-prone communities in value-setting, weighting, and validation, and identify policy and practice avenues.

Studies on urban deprivation date back to the 19th Century but remain important today due to rising levels of inequality and social segregation. However, while social causes of deprivation have been investigated, the role of the built environment remains neglected. Existing studies either provide broad coverage at the expense of detailed morphological descriptions or offer meticulous accounts of small-scale areas without capturing the broader context. This paper addresses this gap by investigating the relationship between urban form, measured at the building level, and deprivation across the entire city of Isfahan, Iran. By doing so, we position this study in the tradition of urban morphology. Operationally, we, first, identify urban types (UTs), that is, distinctive patterns of urban form, by clustering 200+ morphological characters; second, we explore the relationship between proportion of buildings belonging to each UT, in each neighbourhood, and deprivation; third, we offer detailed descriptions of the UTs most strongly associated with deprivation, discuss possible drivers for the observed correlations, and link findings to relevant literature in the field. Twelve UTs are identified, with four showing the strongest impacts on predicting deprivation. This study brings novel insights on the morphology of deprivation of Isfahan, while contextualising them with respect to domain-specific studies, which have predominantly focused on Western cities. The proposed methodology can be replicated to explore morphologies of deprivation in different contexts, further our understanding of the topic, and potentially inform planning and policy making.

This article presents an open data product with large geo-referenced micro-data sets of 2018 real estate listings in Spain. These data were originally published on the idealista.com real estate website. The observations were obtained for the three largest cities in Spain: Madrid ( n = 94,815 observations), Barcelona ( n = 61,486 observations), and Valencia ( n = 33,622 observations). The data sets include the coordinates of properties (latitude and longitude), asking prices of each listed dwelling, and several variables of indoor characteristics. The listings were enriched with official information from the Spanish cadastre (e.g., building material quality) plus other relevant geographical features, such as distance to urban points of interest. Along with the real estate listings, the data product also includes neighborhood boundaries for each city. The data product is offered as a fully documented R package and is available for scientific and educational purposes, particularly for geo-spatial studies.
