Public Transport Accessibility Data for Major Chinese Cities: Python-Scraped from Gaode Maps Sep 20, 2024 23:12

This capsule contains the code and data used to study public transport accessibility in major Chinese cities, particularly in rural areas, with a focus on hidden inequities in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Data was collected using a custom Python script that scraped public transportation route names and stop coordinates from Gaode Maps via BeautifulSoup4 (v4.10.0). The code facilitates spatial analysis of accessibility and transportation gaps between urban and rural regions.
