Geodesign for Designing the Future of Our Cities

Abstract

It can be said that city planning is more important than ever. Traditionally, the results of urban planning have been presented in the form of long reports and 2D maps. In the preparation of these maps, the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in developed and developing countries has become standard since the 90s. Now new developments in Geomatics such as 3D city models, virtual reality (VR) and Geodesign provide tools to take urban planning to the next level. The aim of this study is to explain the current situation of geomatics-oriented urban planning, how it has been applied within the framework of different Geodesign projects in the Şanlıurfa region, and which tools have not been applied for different reasons until today.

Şehirlerimizin Geleceğini Tasarlamak İçin Geodesign

Abstract

Şehir planlamasının her zamankinden daha önemli olduğu söylenebilir. Geleneksel olarak, şehir planlamasının sonuçları uzun raporlar ve 2 boyutlu haritalar şeklinde sunulur. Bu haritaların hazırlanmasında gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerde Coğrafi Bilgi Sistemleri (CBS) kullanımı 90'lı yıllardan itibaren standart hale gelmiştir. Artık geomatikteki 3B şehir modelleri, sanal gerçeklik (VR) ve Geodesign gibi yeni gelişmeler, şehir planlamasını bir sonraki seviyeye taşımak için araçlar sağlıyor. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Şanlıurfa bölgesinde geomatik odaklı şehir planlamasının mevcut durumunu, farklı Geodesign projeleri çerçevesinde nasıl uygulandığını ve hangi araçların farklı nedenlerle uygulanmadığını açıklamaktır.
