Description

This dataset includes pre-processed geospatial data grids (.shp) and in high spatial resolution (50 m X 50 m) of 17 microscale built environment attributes. (in km per km2) The geospatial grids have been calculated using the Kernel density tool in ArcGIS Desktop, v.10.3 (ESRI, REDLANDS) applied to the raw GIS vectors (i.e., polylines), created during the street observation phase of our research. Please, also see the read_me.txt and desclaimer.txt files.
