GPS-Based Exposure to Greenness and Walkability and Accelerometry-Based Physical Activity

Conclusions: Our results indicate that higher levels of physical activity occurred in areas with higher greenness and higher walkability.
Impact: Findings suggest that planning and design policies should focus on these environments to optimize opportunities for physical activity. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 26(4); 525–32. ©2017 AACR.
