1. Siting of healthcare care facilities based on the purpose of their operation, demographic changes, environmental characteristics, and the impact on public healthMarko Jaušovec, Nande Korpnik, Branko Gabrovec, Vanja Skalicky Klemenčič, 2022, pregledni znanstveni članek Opis: A contemporary approach to the spatial design of healthcare care facilities faces numerous
challenges at the crossroads of multidisciplinary topics of architecture and urbanism, healthcare,
security, and organisational sciences. Due to the unique combination of uses, users and architectural
expression, they are defined as urban nodes. With their inclusion, architects facilitate a better
placing of healthcare facilities, indirectly improving human health. The purpose of the article is
to seek guidelines for the siting of healthcare facilities to provide suitable and equal healthcare to
different social structures, and for the optimal and fair spatial distribution of healthcare services.
The descriptive method was used to review literature on the siting of healthcare facilities based on
the purpose of their operation, demographic changes, environmental characteristics, and the impact
on public health. This method was selected as it facilitates data acquisition from various sources
and a comprehensive understanding of the topic discussed. The results of the research show how
important the impact of the healthcare care facilities siting on human health and the wider social
significance of the topic discussed is. The findings may provide guidelines and proposals for future
spatial decisions.

2. Spatial modelling of the transport mode choice : application on the Vienna transport networkSimona Šinko, Bojan Rupnik, Klemen Prah, Tomaž Kramberger, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: A new approach for spatial modelling of transport mode choice is presented in the paper. The approach tackles the problem by considering the trade-off between subjective and objective factors. To obtain mode Preference Rates (PRs) based on subjective factors, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is applied. The objective factors are expressed with the journey time from any point in the map to destination according to the available transport mode choice on the specific connection. The results are presented as PRs of individual transport modes. The model is validated on the con-ducted the survey, with students of Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU) as a target audience. Members of different target groups (age, national, employment) decide differently regarding the transport choice, so it is better to analyse them separately. The presented model can be used for the city transport planning in any urban area. It can help promote the sustainable modes of transport in the areas that are less adjusted in sustainable manner.

3. Spatial modelling of modal shift due to COVID-19Simona Šinko, Klemen Prah, Tomaž Kramberger, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The outbreak of COVID-19 caused many changes in people's life. One of the most significant is the travel behaviour and transport mode choice. This study focus on the changes that the inhabitants of Vienna made in their travel choices because of the virus. The same research about spatial modelling the transport mode choice of commuters in Vienna was completed in 2019 and is a topic addressed in our previous work. Based on our developed methodology, this article indicates that public transport is not a dominant transport mode choice as it was before the virus outbreak.The main result of this paper is geographically defined areas of application of individual alternatives shown on the final map of modal shift in Vienna, which could provide theoretical support for policy-makers and transportation planners. For the city of Vienna, we found that the area of the city where cars are now used has increased, which certainly has a negative impact on air quality and life in the city. The advantage of the methodology is that it can also be applied to other cities in the world.

4. Revealing the spatial pattern of weather-related road traffic crashes in SloveniaDanijel Ivajnšič, Nina Zver, Igor Žiberna, Eva Konečnik Kotnik, Danijel Davidović, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Despite an improvement in worldwide numbers, road traffic crashes still cause social, psychological, and financial damage and cost most countries 3% of their gross domestic product. However, none of the current commercial or open-source navigation systems contain spatial information about road traffic crash hot spots. By developing an algorithm that can adequately predict such spatial patterns, we can bridge these still existing gaps in road traffic safety. To that end, geographically weighted regression and regression tree models were fitted with five uncorrelated (environmental and socioeconomic) road traffic crash predictor variables. Significant regional differences in adverse weather conditions were identified; Slovenia lies at the conjunction of different climatic zones characterized by differences in weather phenomena, which further modify traffic safety. Thus, more attention to speed limits, safety distance, and other vehicles entering and leaving the system could be expected. In order to further improve road safety and better implement globally sustainable development goals, studies with applicative solutions are urgently needed. Modern vehicle-to-vehicle communication technologies could soon support drivers with real-time traffic data and thus potentially prevent road network crashes.

5. The Lyme borreliosis spatial footprint in the 21st century : a key study of SloveniaDaša Donša, Jaša Veno Grujić, Nataša Pipenbaher, Danijel Ivajnšič, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: After mosquitoes, ticks are the most important vectors of infectious diseases. They play an important role in public health. In recent decades, we discovered new tick-borne diseases; additionally, those that are already known are spreading to new areas because of climate change. Slovenia is an endemic region for Lyme borreliosis and one of the countries with the highest incidence of this disease on a global scale. Thus, the spatial pattern of Slovenian Lyme borreliosis prevalence was modelled with 246 indicators and transformed into 24 uncorrelated predictor variables that were applied in geographically weighted regression and regression tree algorithms. The projected potential shifts in Lyme borreliosis foci by 2050 and 2070 were calculated according to the RCP8.5 climate scenario. These results were further applied to developing a Slovenian Lyme borreliosis infection risk map, which could be used as a preventive decision support system.
