The use of Big Data sources enables the quantification and tracking of changes, although few studies delve into their spatial representation and the socio-demographic characterisation of park users. In this research, we use anonymised cellular network-based data with associated user profile information to quantify and map the changes operated in trips to Madrid’s urban parks in a week of reference before and after the pandemic. Our results show a general decrease in trips to urban parks, especially by males in all age ranges. We also observe a marked decrease in trips by the high-income population. Finally, we have nicely presented some of these results in a composition of several maps that provide visual insight into the main changes. eng http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ open access Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Unveiling the pandemic's impact on visits to Madrid’s parks: insights from mobile phone data analysis journal article
