It is known that the following classes of spaces (all spaces in this article are assumed T1) are identical:

1. Images of metric spaces under continuous open maps with compact point inverses.

2. Spaces with uniform bases (in the sense of Alexandrov [1]).

3. Metacompact developable spaces.

4. Spaces with σ-point-finite bases in which closed sets are Gδ's.
