Urban Facility Spatio-Temporal Coordination Analysis Method and Empirical Study from the Perspective of Individual Mobility
Abstract:
As urban lifestyles increasingly digitize, there emerge new changes and demands in individual mobility. Due to the emergence of real-time data, the configuration of urban facilities and services can respond to this demand. However, current research on the matching relationship between individuals and urban facilities primarily focuses on the spatial patterns presented by individual mobility and facility locations, while relatively neglecting the role of time in influencing residents’ access to resources. Therefore, this paper interprets the relationship between individual mobility and facility services from the perspective of individual mobility and proposes a theoretical framework for understanding the spatiotemporal coordination among urban facilities, concludes relevant methods including spatiotemporal accessibility and cosine similarity calculation that provided by present studies, and illustrates their applications in urban planning through two case studies. Focusing on the connection issues between mobility and facilities at multiple levels in spatiotemporal coordination, the analytical methods proposed in this theoretical framework can comprehensively reveal the relationship between urban dynamics and individual mobility, formulate and evaluate urban time planning policies, provide effective tools and support, and help extend spatial facility planning based on spatial accessibility to spatiotemporal scheduling planning covering the entire process of individual mobility.
