  • Urban Health
    • The Problem
      • Increasing Population
      • Most live in densely populated areas
      • Land space not growing
      • Climate Change
      • City Planning management scheme money oriented
      • Environmental Impact Assessment does not look at quality of life or spill over effects
    • Origin-Destination Flow Framework (ODF)
      • People have origin, flow, destination
      • Need to know time in specific location and pollution level
      • Will find quickest and lowest polluted route
      • Highly flexible as can start simple then refine
      • Scalable in space and time
    • Study Site Southampton City
      • 51.8km
      • 245,000 people
      • LiDAR and RGBi used to see height of topography
      • RGBi detects leaves at 10cm height
      • Solar exposure calculated using Solar Analyst in ArcGIS to show shading
      • Can see where people are with census
      • Results can effect housing prices
      • Found no difference in ethnicity quality of life for origin or destination
        • However there is a difference in flow exposure rates

Thank you for sharing the Urban Health diagram! It's a great visual representation of the various factors that contribute to the well-being of urban environments. It's crucial to consider the intersection of factors such as air quality, green spaces, transportation, and waste management in creating healthier and more sustainable cities.

Speaking of sustainability, I recently read an article on the accelerated melting of ice sheets and its implications for our planet's future. It's a thought-provoking piece that highlights the urgency of addressing climate change and adopting sustainable practices to mitigate its effects. It provides valuable insights into the environmental challenges we face and the actions we can take to make a positive impact.
