Article
Full-text available
This paper discusses the protection and development of the cityscape with the use of digital techniques to determine the location of tall buildings. It presents the methodology applied while developing the 2020-2021 Composition Study of Szczecin. The study was commissioned by the City, and its results were included in the Study of Conditions and Di...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
The article discusses computer techniques used to analyse a cityscape based on 3D models. The study focuses on the application of the Visual Protection Surface (VPS) method which enables to analyse the absorption capacity of a city as regards new investment while bearing in mind the goal of preserving a set of strategic views. The outcome of the pr...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
The article presents the application of the Visual Protection Surface (VPS) method in protecting waterfront panoramas. The digital analysis of visual impact, which is most frequently used in urban planning, assesses the impact of new investment on the cityscape. The study presented in the article is based on a reverse approach-determining the maxim...
Article
Full-text available
The article concerns application of the Visual Protection Surface method for analysing landscape interiors and to provide objective computer simulations useful in planning. In this article, landscape interiors are understood as open areas within the city borders, chiefly composed greenery (e.g. Champ-de-Mars in Paris or Belvederegarten in Vienna)....
Article
The paper introduces a method of computational analysis of cityscape called Weighted Visual Exposure Map (WVEM). The method aims at supporting the process of examining attractive vistas in a city. The value of a vista is calculated for each point of the city. The assessment depends on the visibility of selected landmarks that are the most important...
Chapter
Full-text available
The study focuses on the application of the Digital Surface Model (DSM) for the visualisation of a city and urban analyses. The DSM is a cloud of points on a regular mesh derived from the airborne scanning (ALS/LiDAR). The accessibility of data is growing and the production cost decreasing. The current scanning precision is sufficient to present bu...

Full-text available
ABSTRACT The article pres ents digital analysis techniques for the cityscape and structure of the city to examine multifac-eted impact of tall buildings. Methods presented enable analysing visual impact (VIS), planning of protection for strategic vistas (VPS) and examining of impact on public space (several methods, including Negative-3D). The rese...
Article
Full-text available
Podjęte badania dotyczą możliwości zastosowania metody Visual Impact Size (VIS) do prowadzenia cyfrowych analiz krajobrazu w celu identyfikacji ważnych miejsc widokowych w mieście. Kryterium przyjętym dla oceny wartości takich miejsc jest widoczność wybranych obiektów charakterystycznych. Im więcej takich obiektów widać z danego miejsca, tym większ...
Article
Full-text available
The research presented in the article focuses on creating 3D city models in CityGML LoD1 standard while using two data sources available in Poland: a) Database of Topo-graphic Objects (BDOT10k) and b) LiDAR data collected under the ISOK project. It resulted in developing a computer software of BDOT10k 3D-CAD EXPLORER. The software provides for rela...

The RIBA President’s Awards for Research were established in 2006 with the aim of promoting and celebrating the best of research in the field of architecture and the built environment that contributes to new knowledge and understanding of architecture and the practice of architecture.
Article
Full-text available
The article discusses investigations referring to the analysis of the Sky Tower impact on the cityscape of Wrocław. They involved using a computer aided Visual Impact Size method (VIS) developed by a team led by the first of the authors of the article. The method provides for a geometrical examination of the scope and power of dominant visual impac...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
The article introduces the Visual Impact Size (VIS), a method of computational analysis based on the 3D isovists theory to provide analysis of tall buildings impact on the cityscape. In many instances, negative consequences of an inappropriate location of a tall building especially in European cities result from inability to foresee its spatial imp...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
The paper introduces a method of computational analysis of the city landscape called Visual Protection Surface (VPS). The method allows to explore geometrical relations between the scope of visual protection of the city and the maximum heights of new buildings. In contemporary town planning protection of urban landscape is a significant issue, espe...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
The planned height of buildings is subject of discussions, conflicts and controversies, especially for historically composed cities in Europe. This trend is growing worldwide. Most of tall buildings in Europe were built in this century. In many instances the negative impact of tall buildings on the cityscape is the result of mistakes in the plannin...
Article
Full-text available
In contemporary town planning protection of urban landscape is a significant issue. It regards especially those cities, where urban structures are the result of ages of evolution and layering of historical development process. Specific panoramas and other strategic views with historic city dominants can be an important part of the cultural heritage...
Article
Full-text available
The article examines the concept of complexity in architecture and urban planning presenting a proposal for a systematics within the four methods describing complex forms: decomposition, deformation, dispersion, and new complexity. The principles of each method are defined on a general level. However, within each of the methods, more complex simula...

Article
Full-text available
The complex geometry of the city structure and the increasing speed of ongoing urban transformations in large European cities, requires powerful tools for the analysis, design and management. Virtual 3D city models can be an important tool in urban planning, used to diagnose phenomena produced by tall buildings. In recent years, the issue has becom...
Article
Full-text available
The thesis presents new interpretation of the complexity of an architectural form in the context of mathematical theory of deterministic chaos and fractal geometry. According to the classical understanding and experience in designing, the formal complexity is the result of deviating from the order towards free and intuitive creation. Analyses refer...
Article
Full-text available
Since the beginning of human history, the geometric order and chaos exists in the architectural and urban structures together. In context of future dissertation, this paper presents an opinion, that for a good quality of architectural space the balance between order and chaos is necessary. The architectonic space is created by design and other self...
Article
Computer Aided Design means not only aiding the preparation of technical documentation for building purposes or for the presentation of architectural design. The application of computer technology has a deeper meaning, when used for the creative modelling of designed objects and spaces. This article will help to define and describe Computer Paramet...
