To address this issue, we developed AID-PRIGSHARE, an open-source script that automates over 400 QGIS processes to substantially reduces the time-intensive task of generating green space indicators. AID-PRIGSHARE calculatesgreenness, green space amount, access to green infrastructure, and green space uses within distances of 100–1500 m around geolocations. This substantially reduces the effort for sensitivity analysis and may provide support for research that aims to understand the impact of green space indicators on health outcomes.}}, author = {{Cardinali, Marcel and Beenackers, Mariëlle A. and van Timmeren, Arjan and Pottgiesser, Uta}}, booktitle = {{Software Impacts}}, issn = {{2665-9638}}, keywords = {{Green space, Sensitivity analysis, Indicator, GIS, Script, Automatization}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{AID-PRIGSHARE: Automatization of indicator development in green space health research in QGIS.

In the introduction the resilience approach is presented as one possibility to describe ecosystem dynamics. The relations with the concepts of adaptability and ecological integrity are discussed and the research questions are formulated. The focal research objectives are related to the conditions of resilient behaviour of ecosystems, the role of spatio-temporal scales, the differences between short- or long-term dynamics, the basic methodological requirements to exactly define resilience, the role of the reference state and indicators and the suitability of resilience as a management concept. The main part of the paper consists of 13 small case study descriptions, which demonstrate phase transitions and resilient dynamics of several terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems at different time scales. In the discussion, some problems arising from the interpretation of the time series are highlighted and discussed. The topics of discussion are the conceptual challenges of the resilience approach, methodological problems, the role of indicator selection, the complex interactions between different disturbances, the significance of time scales and a comparison of the case studies. The article ends with a conclusion which focuses on the demand to link resilience with adaptability, in order to support the long-term dynamics of ecosystem development.}}, author = {{Müller, F. and Bergmann, M. and Dannowski, R. and Dippner, J.W. and Gnauck, A. and Haase, P. and Jochimsen, Marc C. and Kasprzak, P. and Kröncke, I. and Kümmerlin, R. and Küster, M. and Lischeid, G. and Meesenburg, H. and Merz, C. and Millat, G. and Müller, J. and Padisák, J. and Schimming, C.G. and Schubert, H. and Schult, M. and Selmeczy, G. and Shatwell, Tom and Stoll, S. and Schwabe, M. and Soltwedel, T. and Straile, D. and Theuerkauf, M.}}, booktitle = {{ Ecological indicators : integrating monitoring, assessment and management}}, issn = {{1872-7034}}, keywords = {{Long-term ecological research, LTER, Ecosystem resilience and adaptability, Spatio-temporal scales, Indicator selection}}, number = {{6}}, pages = {{10--43}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{Assessing resilience in long-term ecological data sets}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.ecolind.2015.10.066}}, volume = {{65}}, year = {{2015}}, }
