Abstract

Urban vitality is the key element of sustainable urban development. This paper aims to explore the relationship between urban vitality and the existing built-up environment of the city of Shenzhen. The regression models with multi-source geographic datasets from 2021–2022 were applied to assess Shenzhen in three dimensions: economic, social, and cultural. The results show that Shenzhen’s vitality originates from multiple popular centers. Dense road networks, abundant transportation, and commercial, recreational, entertainment, sports, and leisure facilities are positive indicators of vitality, while urban villages and residential areas have the opposite effect. The model can explain 59% of vitality changes. This paper proposes a quantifiable and replicable adaptation framework for urban villages that combines urban form with data vitality assessment in order to deepen our understanding of urban villages and offer theoretical justifications for long-term urban regeneration. The findings also suggest that spatial differences should be taken into account when formulating urban regeneration responses to make them more targeted. Overall, this paper provides valuable insights for urban planners, policymaker and researchers interested in promoting sustainable urban development through vitality-based urban regeneration.
