Abstract:
The Liveability Index is a tool designed to help cities measure their performance in contrast to local, national, and global standards and encourage them to embrace an "outcome-based" approach to urban planning and management. It attempts to provide an organized evaluation of a city's liveability by considering many factors and measures. However, the Liveability Index does not contain explicit advice on how to improve these aspects, which is critical for increasing the liveability of communities. Develop plans and actions to address the identified parameters and help enhance them

Abstract. This study proposes an index for cities in China to measure the liveability of real estate. This liveability index combines indicators from four dimensions including education, transportation, living facilities and entertainment, and can be quickly obtained by using data of Point of Interest, based on popular internet maps. Then, using Shenzhen as a sample city, correlation analysis has been adopted to examine the relationship between this liveability index and housing price. The results show that, the liveability index can well reflect the real-world situation of the city. Moreover,

Abstract:
This article presents a proposal for a composite index to assess the degree of sustainable urban liveability. It makes two key contributions to this field of study. The first is a proposal for the concept of sustainable urban liveability that includes the need to meet a minimum number of environmental conditions in terms of resource consumption and the deterioration of the environment. The second contribution is the use of a non-compensatory aggregation technique in order to construct the composite index. This kind of aggregation technique does not allow trade-offs between partial indicators.

Purpose – This paper aims to apply a comprehensive Liveability Cities index to rank the liveability of 100 cities in the Greater China Region.

However, there has been no attempt to empirically measure this concept and to examine its nexus to the narrower concept of competitiveness.

Abstract:
New research regarding the comfort and liveability of modern urban areas has gained increasing attention with climate changes and the trend towards intensified urbanization in modern cities. The urbanization processes have commonly resulted in urban heat islands, dense and central spaces where the air temperature is higher when compared to peripheral areas. The increase in the temperature in these spaces causes thermal discomfort, directly impacting people's quality of life. The urban morphology impacts users' thermal perception while limiting or allowing solar and wind access, thus interferin

Nowadays it is an evident feature in our fast-developing big cities, that there need to be steps taken to improve the inhabitants’ well-being and their state of physical and mental health. Improved health can also be achieved by extending the proportion of well-cared-for green areas in city centres, or, by rehabilitating particular buildings, streets, or entire urban areas. These developments have an obviously beneficial psychological effect on people. The establishment of such ’liveable cities’ is profitable not just for the local residents, but from the point of view of tourism as well. Tour

Urban trees provide social, economic, environmental and ecosystem services benefits that improve the liveability of cities and contribute to individual and community wellbeing. There is thus a need for effective mapping, monitoring and maintenance of urban trees. Remote sensing technologies can effectively map and monitor urban tree coverage and changes over time as an efficient and low-cost alternative to field-based measurements, which are time consuming and costly.

Abstract We present the Auckland Urban Liveability Index (AULI), an indicator that quantifies modern liveability at the neighbourhood level in Auckland. The index comprises 29 variables spanning several components of liveability: social infrastructure, green space, transportation, safety and diversity. Each is documented transparently with accompanying data and code. We find that neighbourhoods with the highest liveability scores have comparatively good public transport provision and are amenable to active travel, reflecting the principles of modern urban densification.
