The Smart Cities Research Institute (SCRI) successfully hosted a research seminar on 20 September 2024, on the topic of "Facility-Based Accessibility: A New Research Agenda by Integrating Facility Choice Behaviors into the Evaluation of Place-Based Accessibility." The seminar featured Professor Bi Yu Chen from the State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping, and Remote Sensing at Wuhan University, China.
During the seminar, Prof. Chen introduced a range of accessibility measures known as facility-based accessibility measures. These measures extend conventional place-based accessibility assessments by explicitly incorporating the complexities of residents' facility choice behaviors. The presentation included empirical studies utilizing real data from Wuhan, China, and highlighted several empirical insights and methodological implications for future research.
