1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Urban open space (UOS) plays an important environmental role, especially in areas characterized by intense social and economic activity. However, the high interclass similarities, complex surroundings, and scale variations of UOS lead to unsatisfactory UOS mapping performance, and UOS mapping products for major cities around the world are lacking. To fill this gap, we used a deep learning-based method based on a tiny-manual annotation strategy and optical remote sensing imagery to produce a 1.19 m resolution UOS map of 169 megacities, namely the OpenspaceGlobal product. We generated the OpenspaceGlobal product with five urban open space categories. To obtain the final OpenspaceGlobal product, we processed over 8.5 TB of remote sensing images and nearly 90 million polygons in crowdsourced geospatial data. The validation results showed that the OpenspaceGlobal product had an overall accuracy of 79.13 % and a kappa coefficient of 73.47 %. The OpenspaceGlobal product can promote a better understanding of human-made space surfaces in major cities around the world.
