معرفی
Roos Teeuwen is a PhD candidate at the Delft University of Technology's Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering. Her research focuses on urban environments and their impact on health and well-being, particularly for children. She develops novel metrics and spatial analysis tools to assess accessibility to urban greenspaces, leveraging open-source data and co-design methodologies. Her work addresses how children's unsupervised access to play spaces can be measured and how such data inform urban planning.
Education: MSc in Geomatics (2018) and BSc in Architecture (2014), both from TU Delft. Previously worked as a GIS consultant and research assistant. Her PhD is funded by the Horizon 2020 'Equal-Life' project, focusing on early environmental quality and mental health effects.
Research methods include spatial data analysis, crowd-sourcing surveys, and co-design workshops. She contributes to the Urban Analytics Lab, addressing challenges in public spaces for children, such as accessibility barriers and data representation accuracy.
Key outputs include frameworks for greenspace accessibility metrics and critical comparisons of NDVI/OpenStreetMap data with human perceptions. Her work bridges academic research with practical urban policy applications.
