“…Quatro artigos (15%) envolvem a aplicação de outras técnicas como GIS, que sempre está associado a alguma outra ferramenta (RYBARCZYK; GALLAGHER, 2014; ALYASARI; AUDA; ATTYA, 2020; HACAR; GÜLGEN; BILGI, 2020, ZHANG; MU, 2020). Doze publicações (46%) envolvem mais de uma técnica (ZHANG et al, 2013 HACAR;GÜLGEN;BILGI, 2020;KING et al, 2020;LEE;SHEPLEY, 2020;RASWOL, 2020;MU, 2020;ZHANG, FISHER;FENG, 2020;ALHAJAJ;DAGHISTANI, 2021).…”

“…Dentre as pesquisas que utilizam indicadores de desempenho, busca-se identificar alguns parâmetros mais comuns entre os autores para avaliar a infraestrutura das calçadas e passeios em campus universitários. A partir da análise de 16 artigos, são identificados que os principais parâmetros correspondem a travessia (faixa de pedestres), infraestrutura, acessibilidade e qualidade da calçada (GILSON et al, 2009;ZHANG et al, 2013 MARYONO, 2020;ALYASARI;AUDA;ATTYA, 2020;HACAR;GÜLGEN;BILGI, 2020;KING et al, 2020;LEE;SHEPLEY, 2020;RASWOL, 2020;MU, 2020;ZHANG, FISHER;FENG, 2020;ALHAJAJ;DAGHISTANI, 2021). Na avaliação das calçadas do entorno do campus somente um artigo apresenta indicadores que possibilitam essa avaliação (ADI PRASETYA; PURWANTO; MARYONO, 2020), como apresenta a Tabela 3.…”

“…De uma maneira geral, entre os trabalhos que tratam essa questão, existem poucos que avaliam a qualidade dos caminhos de pedestres em Universidades (GILSON et al, 2009;ZHANG et al, 2013;ASADI-SHEKARI;MOEINADDINI;ZALY SHAH, 2014;AFSAR;YUNOS;YUSOF, 2015;KEAT;YAACOB;HASHIM, 2016;MURWADI;DEWANCKER, 2017;RAHMANDARI;GUNAWAN;MUGNISJAH, 2018;ADI PRASETYA;PURWANTO;MARYONO, 2020;ALYASARI;AUDA;ATTYA, 2020;HACAR;GÜLGEN;BILGI, 2020;KING et al, 2020;LEE;SHEPLEY, 2020;RASWOL, 2020;MU, 2020;ZHANG, FISHER;FENG, 2020;ALHAJAJ;DAGHISTANI, 2021). Entre eles, a maioria avalia a acessibilidade espacial, por meio de indicadores de desempenho, como: condições de piso, largura de calçada, existência de obstáculos, proteção contra intempéries, mobiliário urbano, iluminação noturna, uso lindeiro, travessia, segurança, dentre outros aspectos (GILSON et al, 2009;ZHANG et al, 2013;ASADI-SHEKARI, 2014;AFSAR;YUNOS;YUSOF, 2015;KEAT;YAACOB;HASHIM, 2016;…”

Walking is understood as a sustainable and economical means of transport, it promotes benefits such as improving people's health, but this option is chosen especially when adequate conditions are offered. As it contributes to the adoption of a sustainable urban mobility policy, walking should be encouraged in internal displacements carried out by users of higher education institutions. To support the analysis of mobility in this type of institution, this paper sought to identify the main methods and techniques that can be used to evaluate the quality of walking spaces, internal and external, to University campuses, through a systematic review of literature. For this, Scopus, MDPI, ScienceDirect and Sage Journals platforms were adopted to screen articles published between 2005 and 2021, with the following keywords “walkability, campuses, university” and “pedestrian, “campuses, university”. The analysis of 26 papers, which were part of the sample size, made it possible to identify: i) objective, ii) methodology and iii) technique used among the researchers, and showed that predominantly the research carried out in these environments incorporates not only the spaces within the campus, but its surroundings, or users' access to the campus. Thus, several aspects associated with walkability are evaluated, such as the existing infrastructure itself, the most used mode of transport in displacements within the campus, in addition to some scenario in a certain route carried out by the user.

“…Scholars from 13 colleges and universities proposed the Physical Activity Campus Environmental Supports (PACES) field audit tool for evaluating campus walkability and tested its feasibility by applying it on 13 campuses [46]. Additionally, scholars used comprehensive methods combining the objective and subjective BE features to measure campus walkability [47,48]. Zhang and Mu constructed an integrated campus walkability measurement system by subjectively measuring the campus walkability through a webbased questionnaire and supplemented it with field observations of the campus physical environmental elements [47].…”

Current Chinese campus planning and design have neglected to promote walking activity (WA). Lacking WA and developing sedentary and physical inactivity habits can lead to obesity, diabetes, and other noncommunicable diseases. Academia has confirmed that WA can be facilitated by planning and designing built environment (BE) interventions. Accordingly, this study aims to explore the effect of campus BE features on walking in different regions’ campuses and present nuanced campus planning and design strategies. We selected the objectively measured BE features of destination accessibility, land use, street connectivity, and spatial configuration. Environmental design qualities and pedestrian facilities were chosen as the micro-level BE features. We applied GIS 10.1 and sDNA to calculate gross BE features and field audit tools to measure street environmental features and pedestrian volume (PV). We built negative binomial regression models and eliminated spatial autocorrelation to investigate and compare the BE correlates of walking in urban and suburban campuses. Similarities and differences were found among the outcomes derived from the two regions. We found that campus Walk Score, land use attributes of facility density and park land ratio, complexity, and other features closely correlate with PV in the two types of campuses. Comparatively, closeness, transparency, and complexity only influence urban campuses’ PV, while block length, entropy, facility land ratio, and sidewalk quality only correlate with PV on suburban campuses. According to these findings, we proposed different and targeted campus renewal and planning strategies for WA and walkability promotion.
