Guidelines Navigation
1. Assessment Methodology
The Walkability Index Assessment Dashboard is built for architects, urban designers, planners, and transportation analysts. It allows users to manual audit micro-scale pedestrian design parameters using images (e.g. Google Street View) rather than costly in-situ audits.
The Walkability Index is calculated based on weights mapped against ten core components of urban design quality:
The output is graded on a scale from Grade A (Excellent) to Grade E (Very Poor), representing the friendliness of the street space for pedestrians, wheelers, and active transport modes.
2. Detailed Score Parameters Guide
Evaluates sidewalk presence, clear path width (ideally ≥ 1.8m), structural integrity of pavement surface (tripping hazards), and physical obstructions (street furniture, utility fixtures, vendors).
Grades conflict safety between pedestrians and vehicles. Considers buffer zones, crosswalk markings, vehicle design speed, pedestrian visibility at junctions, and traffic calming measures.
Evaluates universal barrier-free infrastructure: presence of curb cuts/ramps, directional tactile warning tiles, step-free access, and clear cross-slopes.
Assesses environmental comfort parameters: shade availability (tree canopy, building overhangs), seating elements, exposure to traffic noise, and thermal shelter.
Grades aesthetic visual appeal, facade cleanliness, urban landscaping, presence of active frontages (windows, doors, cafes instead of blank walls), and street cleanliness.
Analyzes physical network routing: junction/crossing density, street block perimeter lengths, route directness, and lack of cul-de-sacs or physical barriers.
Measures building mix (residential, commercial, services, office) and active urban frontage, encouraging diverse pedestrian activity across different times of day.
Grades safety during low-light conditions: streetlights, pedestrian-oriented lighting, active natural surveillance (eyes on the street), and overall feeling of safety.
Measures physical proximity to transit systems (bus shelters, metro entrances) and last-mile infrastructure quality (scooter slots, bicycle stands).
Assesses sensory atmospheric conditions: air pollution perception, wind funneling, presence of green nature, and physical cleanliness.
3. Audit Checklist Mode
To assist academic audits in remaining objective, the dashboard includes a Checklist Mode toggle. When toggled, parameter sliders are replaced by four descriptive checkboxes.
Each checkbox corresponds to an objective physical criterion (e.g., for Sidewalk Quality: Smooth surface, Width ≥ 1.8m, Continuous pathway, Zero obstacles). Checking an item adds 1.25 points. This calculates the score out of 5.0 and eliminates subjective bias between different user evaluators.
4. Local Storage & Backups
This application works 100% offline. All assessments, image
payloads, weights, and configurations are saved locally in the browser's
LocalStorage. No data is sent to external servers or APIs.
Image Limit Note: LocalStorage has a quota (typically
~5MB per domain). To prevent quota overflows, uploaded images are automatically
compressed and downscaled using HTML Canvas before saving. If you intend to save
large volumes of assessments with multiple images, export backups regularly as JSON
and clear records from settings to keep storage footprint minimal.
