Environmental factors for outdoor jogging in Beijing: Insights from using explainable spatial machine learning and massive trajectory data

Comparing Differences in Jogging Support across Various Land Use Types in Urban Built-Up Areas Using User-Recommended Routes

“…The classification of environmental perception and environmental elements was primarily based on the part of speech of the words, while the categorization of factors mainly stems from the study of literature related to jogging. Environmental perception factors involve abstract spatial sensations, predominantly represented by adjectives, including safety [47,48], vibrancy [28], cleanliness [49], slope [25], width [15,50], accessibility [14,19], connectivity [28], air quality [22,51], scenic beauty [14,18], greenery [23,24], lighting [52,53], soundscape [28], and temperature [20,54]. Environmental elements factors primarily include concrete spatial entities, represented mostly by nouns, including vehicles [51,53], pedestrians [14,32], traffic infrastructure [28,55], landscape [14], green space [24,50], waterfront space [26,32], service facilities [14,15], lighting facilities [52,53], pavement [48,56], culture [57], buildings [15,58], and vertical elements [25].…”

“…Recent studies have explored the relationship between the built environment and jogging [14][15][16][17][18]. Some environmental factors related to jogging have already been studied, such as accessibility [19], temperature [20], air quality [21,22], greenery [23,24], and slope [25].…”

Identifying Street Environmental Factors That Attract Public Attention from the Jogger’s Perspective: A Multiscale Spatial Exploration

“…In recent years, the impact of the street environment on jogging has increasingly gained attention. Studies have explored both linear [2,20] and nonlinear [21][22][23] correlations between various environmental factors and jogging behavior, including but not limited to traffic facilities [2,24], natural exposure [2,25], accessibility [12], and climate [26]. However, many environmental factors used in research are pre-selected based on expert experience and previous literature [27,28], potentially overlooking or neglecting factors that joggers focus on.…”
