Urban Analysis & Simulation :: UAS Basic - Einzelansicht

Cities are complex human-made objects, and they consist of thousands of elements and need to satisfy numerous human needs. The definition of urban form (street network, plots, buildings) is a crucial step in the planning of cities because it has the longest lasting effect on their social, economic and ecological performance. Thus, we need to approach this step with the most care. This course will deal with computational analysis methods to support this process. You will learn methods for the quantitative analysis of urban space (such as density, accessibility, visibility) and examine how far these quantities relate to real-life phenomena such as the distribution of uses in a city, movement patterns of urban users or individual spatial experience.
