“…However, the range of user characteristics categories is limited, and the model does not adapt to the diverse preferences of users in an agile manner. Ertz et al (2021) put forth a procedure for generating comfortable pedestrian routes that incorporate green spaces, social zones, and quiet streets. This procedure relies on environmental factors and processes, which are derived from questionnaire surveys.…”

Our study aims to devise a new method for route planning that caters to the distinct needs of elderly pedestrians. We established a quantitative model to capture the relationship between the characteristics of elderly users and their route preferences. Additionally, we evaluated a user adaptation methodology that incorporates user preference assessment and walking history data. "Acceptable detour time" was used as a measure of user preferences. As the primary plan, we suggested a method based on post-walking evaluations of route factors by the user, which was validated through an empirical walking experiment, highlighting the feasibility of our approach. However, this approach relies on user input for each route factor, raising concerns over user convenience. To address this issue, we extended our objective to devise a methodology that incorporates walking history, eliminating the need for user input. Drawing insights from an additional walking experiment, we formulated an alternative strategy for adjusting the acceptable detour time in our secondary plan. This strategy estimates the user's evaluation of each route factor by comparing the shortest route with the actual route walked. Application of this method to our experimental data demonstrated its utility and viability, but it also revealed an exacerbation of estimation error with updates in some situations, requiring further research to enhance the efficiency of our proposed methodology.

“…Ertz et al proposed a method to generate comfortable pedestrian routes in the presence of green spaces, social areas, and quiet roads (Ertz, 2021). Environmental factors and process methods are based on questionnaire surveys, and the necessity and sufficiency of route factors and the validity of quantification of each cost for factors have not been confirmed.…”

The aim of our project is to develop a route planning method that can provide each user with an appropriate route, taking into consideration the walkability, safety, and pleasantness peculiar to the elderly. To achieve this goal, we constructed a quantitative model that expresses the relationship between the attributes of elderly users and their preference for route selection and proposed a method of individual adaptation of the model using post-walking preference evaluations of route factors. We used "acceptable detour time" to quantify user preferences. A paper survey and a walking experiment were conducted to examine the feasibility of the proposed method. It is confirmed that the targeted user attributes are useful in estimating the preferences of the elderly for the routes. In some situations, we were able to identify improvements in the participants' evaluation of the routes. The result indicates the feasibility of the user adaptation method. By adjusting the update parameters and using more data, it is expected to plan routes that are adapted to individuals with high accuracy.

Climate change is an existential threat to Europe and the world, and is impacting and influencing people. At the same time, the urbanization of the world is increasing, meaning that these challenges need to be solved mainly in cities. Cities are also increasingly using digital technologies to become smarter, which will be a crucial part of the future cities. The EU has initiated the European Green Deal in order to overcome these challenges, and to make Europe the first climate neutral continent by 2050. A part of this is the EU Cities Mission aiming for climate-neutral transitions in frontrunner cities by 2030. The EU-funded project Creating Actionable Futures (CrAFt) bridges these ambitions with the New European Bauhaus principles, to ensure that climate-neutral transitions in cities will be sustainable, inclusive, and beautiful. This systematic literature review was performed to understand digital tools in this specific context.
