“…Meanwhile, it is of great practical importance in forming residents' self-identity to the city, improving public quality, developing a good-behavior fashion, fostering the social spirit of citizen, and promoting the harmonious construction. As a result, many scholars at home and from abroad in recent years have had further studies on this topic from different aspects, such as studies on attitude polices, protecting polices and lessons from the urban public open space [3][4][5]; studies on the satisfaction of different requirements according to different groups [6][7][8][9] and specific functions of the urban public open space[10、11]; analysis on the specific situation of a concrete case in a certain area [12][13][14]; and case studies on program mode, evaluation standard and method of urban public open space.…”

Since there is no clear definition, configuration norms and quantization standards of the urban public open space in national standards and norms of urban planning at present, this paper analyzes the role and significance of public open space, gives its definition and elements, proposes some principles for urban planning and design, raises an evaluation index system of overall quality of urban public open space by learning from the foreign experience and referring to domestic cities, and build a model and evaluation criteria for the comprehensive evaluation of overall quality of urban public open space. It is of positive and practical significance for scientific measurement and evaluation of the real quality of urban public open space, for creation of new public open space, for the building of a "ecological city" and 'sustainable city' and for promotion of the harmonious construction. Keywords-urban ； public open space ； general level ； index system；comprehensive evaluation；urban planning.

“…Therefore, public space in the neighborhood should attract the elderly to go and carry out sports activities. In the existing research, the corresponding evaluation attributes [38] are determined from the dimensions of usability, accessibility, and security, as follows: Legibility [39,40], internal and external connections [41], accessible sidewalks and reachability [42][43][44][45], adequate lighting [46]. We should analyze in depth the order in which the elderly obtain information through spatial perception, because, in a limited space environment, it is important to know what should be done first if it is not possible to fully meet the needs of the elderly.…”

The Impact of Street Space Perception Factors on Elderly Health in High-Density Cities in Macau—Analysis Based on Street View Images and Deep Learning Technology

The urban space environment has been proven to be related to the health of the elderly. However, as a high-density city, Macau’s limited urban space must cope with the growing population and the arrival of an aging society. In the existing studies, less attention has been paid to Macau, especially the relationship between Macanese elderly and urban space. This study uses Baidu Street View (BSV) on the Macau Peninsula and conducts field surveys to obtain street view data to evaluate the openness, greenness, interface coverage, and road area ratio of street space and its association with the physical and mental health of the elderly and social health. The results show that the data truly reflect the overall street space conditions on the Macau Peninsula. The street openness, greenery rate, and interface enclosure are all related to the elderly in various evaluations in areas with a higher population dependency index and aging index. Human space perception is related to health gain, and road area ratio is weaker than other indicators. The research results have certain policy implications and have practical significance for city managers and designers.

“…In recent years, many scholars have had reviews on the urban public open space from different aspects, such as studies on protecting policies, attitudes towards policies and lessons from the urban public open space (Broussard, Washington-Ottombre, and Miller 2008;Bengston, Fletcher, and Nelson 2004;Sanders 2003); analysis on the specific situation in a certain area and studies on the satisfaction of different requirements of different groups (Turel, Yigit, and Ipek 2007;Yang and Kang 2005;Wu and Plantinga 2003;Suite 1985) and specific functions of the urban public open space (Backlund et al 2004;Tang and Wong 2008). At present, it is rare to study the effect of commercial open space quality on pedestrian by quantitative means.…”

Research on the correlation between the characteristics of bottom-level interface of commercial complex and the pedestrian behavior around: based on environmental behavior quantification technology ABSTRACT This paper takes 30 commercial complexes in Wuhan, China as examples, based on literature, open data, observation experiment, environmental behavior research methods and environmental behavior quantification methods, SPSS software was used to analyze the correlation between the characteristics of the bottom-level interface of commercial complex and the pedestrian behavior around, the results show that the attractiveness of commercial complexes to surrounding pedestrians is strongly positively correlated with average transparency of bottom-level interface of commercial complex, and the intimacy degree of pedestrians around commercial complexes to commercial complexes is positively correlated with an average saturation of the color of the bottom-level interface of commercial complex. This means that through empirical research on various design factors of the commercial complex itself, explore the impact of the bottom-level interface of the commercial complex on the quality of urban space, and provide a data foundation and provides clues and experience, for planning and designing the high-quality bottom-level interface of commercial complex.
