Visualizing Sustainable Planning de Gerhard Steinebach

Visualizing Sustainable Planning: X.media.publishing

Editat de Gerhard Steinebach, Subhrajit Guhathakurta, Hans Hagen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 iul 2009

În contextul programelor de studii superioare dedicate urbanismului și managementului teritorial, Visualizing Sustainable Planning ocupă un loc central prin abordarea unei probleme critice: necesitatea unor instrumente vizuale avansate pentru a gestiona sisteme socio-ecologice hiper-complexe. Apreciem modul în care editorii Gerhard Steinebach, Subhrajit Guhathakurta și Hans Hagen semnalează faptul că, în timp ce informatica și cartografia au adoptat rapid vizualizarea tridimensională, planificarea urbană a rămas ancorată în metode GIS bidimensionale tradiționale. Volumul acoperă aceeași arie tematică precum Visualization in Landscape and Environmental Planning de Ian Bishop, dar cu o abordare mult mai tehnică și orientată spre cercetarea de frontieră, integrând soluții de realitate augmentată și modelare numerică pentru riscurile de mediu.

Structura cărții reflectă o progresie logică de la teorie la aplicații practice. Primele capitole analizează sistemul de planificare englez și potențialul locativ, trecând apoi către secțiuni tehnice despre meteorologia urbană și managementul riscului de inundații. Remarcăm includerea unor capitole inovatoare despre acustica urbană și vizualizarea sistemelor de apă reziduală, elemente adesea ignorate în literatura standard. Partea finală, dedicată studiilor de caz și cercetărilor doctorale, oferă o perspectivă interdisciplinară asupra indicatorilor de sustenabilitate. Față de The Real and Virtual Worlds of Spatial Planning, care se concentrează pe percepția cotidiană a spațiului, lucrarea de față propune un cadru metodologic riguros pentru specialiștii care trebuie să fundamenteze decizii de proiectare pe date vizuale complexe.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această lucrare profesioniștilor din urbanism și geografie care doresc să depășească limitele reprezentărilor cartografice clasice. Cititorul câștigă acces la metode de ultimă oră în modelarea 3D și realitatea augmentată aplicate sustenabilității. Este un instrument esențial pentru a înțelege cum vizualizarea avansată poate facilita comunicarea între planificatori și comunități în fața provocărilor climatice actuale.

Despre autor

Gerhard Steinebach, Subhrajit Guhathakurta și Hans Hagen sunt cercetători de renume internațional în domeniile planificării urbane, analizei spațiale și vizualizării computerizate. Expertiza lor combinată acoperă atât aspectele teoretice ale sustenabilității, cât și implementarea tehnică a sistemelor de suport pentru decizii. Subhrajit Guhathakurta este recunoscut pentru studiile sale asupra mediului construit și impactului climatic, în timp ce Hans Hagen este o autoritate în domeniul graficii pe calculator și procesării datelor științifice în cadrul Springer și al comunității academice germane.

Descriere scurtă

we are a part of, the current discussions of global recession in the media alerts us to the occasional perils of the globalized economic system. The globally dispersed, intricately integrated, and hyper-complex socio-economic-ecological system is d- ficult to analyze, comprehend and communicate without effective visualization tools. Given that planners are at the frontlines in the effort to prepare as well as build res- ience in the impacted communities, appropriate visualization tools are indispensable for effective planning. Second, planners have largely been slow to incorporate the advances in visuali- tion research emerging from other domains of inquiry. The research on visualizing 3-dimensional environments have now entered the mainstream of computer science with a number of highly cited articles. Other disciplines, such as graphic design, geography and cartography have also lead in the development of new forms of vi- alization and communication, both conceptually and technologically. In contrast, the literature on modeling and visualization in planning has relied heavily on g- graphic information systems (GIS) tools that continue to provide two-dimensional spatial maps in formats not significantly different from those of a decade ago. This is not to suggest that research on planning support systems and GIS have been stagnant. Integrated models of transportation-land use-environment have become more sophisticated and several operational models are currently in use. Regardless, visualization research in planning has not kept pace with these developments. This volume attempts to redress this gap in the planning literature.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The authors present the state of the art in the rapidly growing field of visualization as related to problems in urban and regional planning. The significance and timeliness of this volume consist in its reflection of several developments in literature and the challenges cities are facing. First, the unsustainability of many of our current paradigms of development has become evidently clear. We are entering an era in which communities across the globe are strengthening their connections to the global flows of capital, goods, ideas, technologies and values while facing at the same time serious dislocations in their traditional socioeconomic structures. While the impending scenarios of climate change impacts remind us about the integrated ecological system that we are part of, the current discussions about global recession in the media alert us and make us aware of the occasional perils of the globalized economic system. The globally dispersed, intricately integrated and hyper-complex socioeconomic-ecological system is difficult to analyze, comprehend and communicate without effective visualization tools. Given that planners are at the frontlines in the effort to prepare as well as build resilience in the impacted communities, appropriate visualization tools are indispensable for effective planning. Second, planners have largely been slow to incorporate the advances in visualization research emerging from other domains of inquiry. Findings of research in other disciplines, such as graphic design, geography and cartography also lead to the development of new forms of visualization and communication.
