“Smart Solutions for Spatial Planning: A design support system for urban generative design” was presented at eCAADe 2008 Conference.
Abstract
SSSP is a Government funded knowledge transfer project under the overall umbrella of the UK “building sustainable communities” initiative. The paper describes the innovative techniques being developed by the partners to build urban modelling tools for multiple simulation or regeneration scenarios in the Thames Gateway region of London.
This knowledge transfer scheme is between the main partners and the London boroughs of Newham and Tower Hamlets. The main aim is to demonstrate the use of digital data in the development of planning scenarios
The aim is to demonstrate a workflow, which should provide stakeholders with a way of testing regeneration options, which are grounded on ‘real’ data and are capable of providing rapid feedback for policy makers and inhabitants alike.
