论文摘要
城市规划越来越多地驱动数据,但是在城市规模上使用数据设计并对人类规模的影响保持敏感的挑战与今天对Jane Jacobs的影响至关重要。我们用城市马赛克(Urban Mosaic)解决了这一挑战,这是一种通过空间和时间密集的数据集探索城市结构的工具,该数据集由纽约市的770万个街道级图像(在一年中捕获)。与专业从业人员合作,我们使用Urban Mosaic调查可及性和流动性以及保存和改造的问题。通过这样做,我们通过支持活动,例如对地理上遥远的社区的视觉比较以及对不断发展的城市发展的时间分析来展示如何在城市和街道之间提供桥梁。
Urban planning is increasingly data driven, yet the challenge of designing with data at a city scale and remaining sensitive to the impact at a human scale is as important today as it was for Jane Jacobs. We address this challenge with Urban Mosaic,a tool for exploring the urban fabric through a spatially and temporally dense data set of 7.7 million street-level images from New York City, captured over the period of a year. Working in collaboration with professional practitioners, we use Urban Mosaic to investigate questions of accessibility and mobility, and preservation and retrofitting. In doing so, we demonstrate how tools such as this might provide a bridge between the city and the street, by supporting activities such as visual comparison of geographically distant neighborhoods,and temporal analysis of unfolding urban development.
