C-Code 1.0: simulación urbana digital

Resumen

Urban building codes include a series of abstract geometric and mathematical prescriptions whose final built result is not easily visualized by non-technical users. This makes an informed public debate about the proposed regulations difficult and leaves the final definition of the exact ratios and formulas in the hands of local governments’ technical consultants. We propose a system which, taking as its inputs the roads and lots of the area under consideration, generates a detailed three dimensional model that gives neighbors, users and authorities access to a common, objective preview of the foreseeable result of the codes under consideration.
