Following　advancement　in　urbanization,　outdoor　thermal　comfort　is　receiving　increasing　attention,　with　radiation　being　an　influencing　factor.　To　determine　the　shading　preference,　instead　of　a　subjective　questionnaire　survey,　an　objective　foot　vote　approach　was　proposed　using　remote　sensing　images.　Subsequently,　the　meteorological　data　of　cities　were　obtained　from　the　Bureau　of　Meteorology.　From　the　results,　the　foot　vote　was　approximately　consistent　with　the　PMV,　and　pedestrians　tended　to　move　to　the　shaded　area　if　it　was　hot　and　to　the　non-shaded　area　if　it　was　cold.　However,　people　do　not　move　if　the　foot　vote　value　ranges　from　1　to　2,　and　the　thermal　acceptance　range　of　PET　is　19.2-29　degrees　C　in　Beijing　when　using　the　definitions　of　foot　vote.　The　outdoor　thermal　acceptance　differs　significantly　with　the　types　of　outdoor　sites　and　climates,　and　pedestrians　in　Beijing　are　significantly　more　sensitive　than　those　in　Wuhan　if　the　outdoor　thermal　environment　changes.　Compared　to　transportation　hubs　and　shopping　malls,　pedestrians　in　public　buildings　are　less　sensitive,　whereas　those　in　scenic　spots　are　more　sensitive.　Results　from　this　study　will　be　beneficial　to　policymakers　in　urban　designing　to　renovate　and　improve　thermally　comfortable　urban　environments　at　the　pedestrian　level.
