On the need for a multi-dimensional framework to measure accessibility to urban green

A. Battiston and R. Schifanella

This research, conducted by Alice Battiston and Rossano Schifanella, reveals the limitations of using single metrics to gauge green accessibility in cities. By examining over 1000 cities, they advocate for a multi-dimensional framework that captures a variety of indicators to ensure a thorough and dependable evaluation of urban green spaces.

Abstract
This paper investigates the reliability of using single metrics to assess green accessibility in cities. By analyzing the stability of population and area rankings across over 1000 cities using various green accessibility indicators, the authors demonstrate that a single indicator may inadequately differentiate across areas or population subgroups. This highlights the need for a multi-dimensional framework to evaluate a range of indicators simultaneously for a more comprehensive and reliable assessment of urban green accessibility.
