“…Nos estudos de microescala é possível aplicá-la por meio da técnica de Análise dos traços de comportamento, a qual faz observações sobre o comportamento e as atividades dos usuários, identifica os usos, fluxos e relações espaciais, quando representado graficamente é denominado de mapa comportamental (RHEINGANTZ et al, 2009). Essa técnica está presente em 2 estudos dessa revisão (KIM et al, 2020;ZUMELZU;BARRÍA;BARRIENTOS-TRINANES, 2020).…”

“…Os artigos abordam este tema de duas formas: a distância entre o ponto de partida e destino final, e a distância dos equipamentos urbanos e de serviço (comércio, escolas, hospitais, etc). Os pedestres tendem a escolher a rota mais curta, mas podem ser influenciados a alterar sua rota para uma maior, conforme seus interesses, a presença de atividades de uso do solo diversificadas influencia essa escolha, e serve de incentivo a caminhada (SAID; ABOU-ZEID; KAYSI, 2016;CORAZZA et al, 2020;ZUMELZU;BARRÍA;BARRIENTOS-TRINANES, 2020).…”

The spatial quality of urban infrastructure for pedestrian mobility, influenced by the physical aspects of space and the elements perceived by pedestrians, can induce the behavior of people in order to encourage or inhibit the use of some routes. Therefore, identifying methods and techniques to evaluate this infrastructure's quality is important to contribute to the analysis and diagnosis, which are fundamental for urban management. Given this context, this article aims to identify, through a systematic literature review , the main methods and techniques for evaluating the spatial quality of sidewalks from the micro, meso and macro scales. The Scopus platform database was used and the search delimited the period from 2016 to 2020 for scientific articles. The analysis of 42 articles allowed us to identify: (1) their main characteristics (most relevant authors evaluating this theme, countries where the study was carried out, year of the research´s development and journals with the highest number of publications on this theme, among other general aspects), (2) the main methodologies and techniques for the evaluation of spatial quality, and (3) the importance of the scale of analysis to evaluate urban infrastructure for pedestrian mobility and its influence on the analyses of the results.

“…Many studies show that the quality of urban forms affects the degree to which built environments promote relaxation and reduced anxiety in public spaces. Many studies have advocated for smaller city blocks due to their apparent benefits for walking [29,[142][143][144]. Dimensions of street blocks between 70 m and 100 m are mostly recommended in the literature [32,142].…”

“…According to the latest mobility survey in Chilean cities [24], data show that although intermediate cities register high modal quotas for walking, these have decreased in cities in southern Chile such as Valdivia (from 33.5% to 23.1% between 2002 and 2013), showing similar values in Osorno (20.1%), Temuco (24.5%) and Puerto Montt (18.5%) [25]. On the other hand, the decrease in pedestrian accessibility, together with the deterioration of the urban landscape that is reflected in environments of low spatial quality, excessive building densification, lack of vegetation, poor sidewalk maintenance, low porosity on facades and presence of blind walls in streets and passages, have forced the inhabitants to redefine their social relationships and connection with the built environment [26][27][28][29]. A surging body of evidence supports that these changes have a negative influence on the mental well-being of inhabitants.…”

Promotion of healthy cities has prompted urban planners and designers to build new conceptual frameworks to improve the design of public spaces, in which mental well-being emerges as a fundamental concept. Mental well-being is related to spatial design, with increasing attention being paid to the built environment as an important predictor of mental well-being. The objective of this article is to advance and contribute new knowledge about the characteristics of the built environment and its potential benefits for mental well-being. A meta-analysis is carried out on various empirical and theoretical approaches from the literature. Using a WOS database as a case study, a methodology based on a bibliometric analysis is proposed to examine which elements of the built environment impact mental well-being in research between 1975 and 2020, using the HistCites and VOSviewer tools. The results show that there are six thematic axes related to the built environment that would favor greater mental well-being in public spaces: walkability, density, spatial design, environmental noise, green areas and social interaction. The six thematic axes are critically analyzed and integrated into a conceptual framework to address the impacts of the built environment on mental well-being in the planning of cities. It concludes with a discussion on the implications of these concepts for urban public policy and the promotion of healthier and more sustainable and walkable environments in Latin American cities.

“…According to this, [17] compares the thirteen neighborhoods that conform the district of Nou Barris in Barcelona, but without descending to the block scale. [48,49] approach the block scale but only examine the accessibility dimension. [18] proposes a decrease in scale, but not exactly defining the conditions per block.…”

Jane Jacobs’s Criteria for Urban Vitality: A Geospatial Analysis of Morphological Conditions in Quito, Ecuador

Urban vitality, understood as a key factor for the achievement of cities’ sustainability, shows a strong relationship with urban morphology. The city theorist Jane Jacobs suggested morphologi-cal aspects to promote vital cities already in the 1960s, which remain valid in the present. How-ever, few studies in the Andean region quantitatively exemplify this. This paper aims to test the measurement of urban vitality in a neighborhood of Quito, Ecuador, called La Mariscal, inte-grating Jacobs’ approach. In particular, three urban vitality indexes are evaluated with the appli-cation of GIS software using cadastral data obtained from the municipality and field data col-lection. Results show that the context-based previous knowledge and the scale of analysis are es-sential factors in the configuration of dimensions, indicators, and spatial representation of any urban vitality index. In the study area land use mixture, contact opportunity, and accessibility dimensions are fundamental. Regarding indicators, the incorporation of the informal small-scale commerce, the quality of sidewalks, the street slope, and the good-conditioned street furniture is recommended. Finally, a hybrid representation (raster and vectorial) is suggested to precisely measure urban vitality at a block scale. Altogether, by providing a comparative approach, we in-tend to bring a useful framework for researchers and planners to study urban vitality in Andean cities.
