Abstract
We developed two simple, effective and consistent methods for predicting human health outcomes from physical activity in a typical urban development at a precinct scale. Considering the two primary transport outputs from an urban assessment model (vehicle kilometres travelled and mode share), we developed two methods using approaches based on the literature linking human health outcomes and transport. The two methods were applied to a case study and generated very similar results, demonstrating how a human health outcome from physical activity rates can be incorporated into an urban planning model and become part of the assessment process for urban development.
我们开发了两个简单、有效、稳定的方法,在城市区划内预测典型城市开发中体力活动人的健康状况的影响。我们利用城市评估模型得出的两种主要交通流量(机动车行驶公里数和运具比例),以关联交通与人类健康的文献为基础,研发了两种方法。将这两种方法用于个案研究,得出的结果非常接近,说明可将体力活动量对健康的影响纳入城市规划模型,使之成为城市开发评估过程中的一个环节。
