Kiez score: amenities dimension added

Methodology

Five dimensions instead of four

The Kiez score gets a fifth dimension: local amenities.

Dimension Share
Quiet & air 20 %
Green space 20 %
Mobility 20 %
Social situation 20 %
Local amenities 20 %

What the amenities dimension measures

For each planning area, it calculates the nearest distance to five types of point of interest (POI):

  • Daycare centre within 500 m (weight 0.25)
  • Primary school within 800 m (weight 0.25)
  • Hospital within 2,000 m (weight 0.20)
  • Playground within 400 m (weight 0.15)
  • Green space within 600 m (weight 0.15)

Distance is calculated with the Haversine formula to the POI centroid and normalised with a threshold function. The implementation lives in scripts/build-kiez-scores.ts and src/lib/data/build-helpers.ts.

Why POI distance and not count

The plain number of daycare centres per km² does not tell densely populated Kieze apart. A family needs one daycare centre within reach, not 12 within a 100 m radius. Distance thresholds capture walking accessibility.
