Abstract

Today, the use of information technologies has made life easier and helps people to take precautions against problems that may arise in the future. 3D Geographic Information Systems is also used for various purposes to facilitate human life today. One of these goals is to improve the foresight ability in plans. In the studies carried out until today, the power of 3D to produce solutions to various problems in the world is revealed. In this study, the effects of urban shadowing because of wrong urbanization have been investigated by using the power of 3D Geographic Information Systems. The data was provided via Open Street Map, which is an open-source map provider. The obtained data were analyzed and a park which is the surrounding area is not yet developed was determined. In the aim of the study, new buildings were added around the park by evaluating the direction of urban growth and possibilities, and the effect of the shadow it created on the sunbathing time of the park was investigated. It is obvious that social areas such as park areas are important for people to reach the sun they need. As a result, it is necessary to investigate the shadow effects of newly constructed buildings in order to increase the sunshine duration in the park areas.
