Chinese Academy of Sciences (2019) Big earth data in support of the Sustainable Development Goals, Beijing, Big Earth Data Program, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) This report addresses five SDGs, including: SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), SDG 14 (Life below Water) and SDG 15 (Life on Land). For SDG 11, this report focuses on five indicators, including public transport (SDG 11.2.1), urbanization (SDG 11.3.1), cultural and natural heritage (SDG 11.4.1), PM2.5 (SDG 11.6.2) and public spaces (SDG 11.7.1). This report utilizes Big Earth Data in place of the traditional statistical data and increases the spatiotemporal resolution of SDG indicator evaluation. It also develops and employs the Big Earth Data methods for assessing China’s domestic practices aimed at achieving SDG 11. |
