Table 1 Activities, calculation of activities per grid cell, and chosen number of facilities for mandatory activities
From: Measuring and visualising 15-min-areas for fair CO2 budget distribution
Mandatory activity | (Proxy for) Number of facilities per grid cell | Number of facilities that need to be reached in later calculations |
|---|---|---|
Work | Number of leisure, errand and education PoIs since each of them also defines work places. Additionally, the areas of commercial and industrial land use are taken as possible work places | 1000 The number is relatively high to guarantee that different types of work places can be reached |
Education | Number of kindergarten, school and university PoIs per grid cell | 3 Since in a 15 min city setting, the schools and kindergartens may not be chosen by the parents anymore but are assigned according to the area, only a small number of places was taken here |
Shopping | Number of shops and marketplace PoI per grid cell | 2 Only shopping facilities for basic goods are considered, so only a small number of shops was taken |
Leisure | Number of Leisure PoIs per grid cell (see also Table 3) | 30 To be able to reach different kind of leisure activities, the number was set to 30 |
Errands | Number of errands PoIs per grid cell (see also Table 3) | 10 To guarantee that different facilities for errands are included, the number was set to 10 |
