Modeling and Measuring Cities: Tim Stonor
- 1. Measuring & modelling cities 7 provocations 2011 Urban Systems Symposium 11th May 2011 Tim Stonor t.stonor@spacesyntax.com @Tim_Stonor
- 2. 1 Avoid complexity Complexity is confusing to clients & communities. Complexity means additional fees for developers & consultants.
- 3. Simple, graphic, user-oriented modelling Observe Explain Forecast Deliver
- 4. 2 Modelling cities means more than modelling movement Cities are about transaction & not only about movement. Movement models have ruined the social & economic performance of cities by creating too much movement, insufficient exchange.
- 5. Build it and they will move But at what cost?
- 6. Focus on people not transport Trafalgar Square, London
- 7. 3 Models are only as good as the theories that made them & the theories that guide their use Focus on city planning principles & not just modelling processes.
- 8. Urban planning principles 101 Cities aren’t about movement from A to B. Cities are about social & economic transaction between people moving at different scales.
- 9. Planning for transaction Multi-scale movement modelling Pedestrian movement Vehicle movement A single modelling environment
- 10. 4 Success is easier to model than failure In successful cities, spatial accessibility, movement, land use, density & heightare correlated. Broken cities are harder to model.
- 11. Planning for correlation Parametric urban modelling Manipulating spatial networks
- 12. 5 Open source Open data Open standards Open access
- 13. 6 Do not separate development from application Develop through application. Create feedback mechanisms between development & application. Expect failure.
- 14. Development & application A process of mutual exploitation UCL Space Syntax Laboratory Fundamental research Teaching Technology development People Knowledge Questions Space Syntax Limited Strategic consulting Internship Technology development
- 15. 7 Urbanization is not a brutal fact but a beautiful & powerful opportunity …for creativity, innovation, industry & culture.
