    Geospatial analysis of the distribution of urban green spaces: a study of four Indian cities
    (Routledge, 2021-07-27T00:00:00) Kaur, Navjotpreet; Kaur, Mandeep; Padhi, Saumya Sibani; Singh, Kiran Kumari
    The urban green spaces are immensely significant to ensure quality of life in a city. However, their spatial distribution is found to be inequitable. The study investigates spatial distribution of green space through remote sensing data at different times in four Indian cities. It further examines the distribution of urban parks with respect to the location of slums. The results demonstrate that green spaces in the study areas changed considerably in the last two decades. The public urban parks are far from slum areas, and their spatial distribution is inequitable. Urban green spaces should be considered a matter of environment justice. � 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
