Analyzes park accessibility in Subotica, indicating significant urban green equity disparities.
This study explores urban green equity in Subotica, Serbia, through the lens of spatial accessibility to public parks.By leveraging QGIS and open datasets from OpenStreetMap, we mapped buffer zones of 100 meters around park areas and assessed population access using digitized building data.The methodology includes spatial querying, attribute calculations, and statistical summaries, enabling precise identification of underserved neighbourhoods.Results indicate that nearly half of the city's population lacks adequate access to nearby green spaces, with significant disparities between different parts of the city.The findings support planners in prioritizing zones for future green infrastructure investments and illustrate the effectiveness of open-source GIS tools in urban analysis.
