全体主题 > Planning Support Systems

Urban Systems Designs arises from currently disparate planning approaches (sustainable, scenario planning, and community engagement), compounded by the reemergence of rational planning methods (IoT, metric based analysis, and big data). Joining social considerations (Human Well-Being), environmental needs (Sustainability), climate change and disaster mitigation (Resiliency), and prosperity (Economics) as the four foundational pillars. Urban Systems Design integrates planning methodologies to systematically tackle urban challenges, using IoT and rational methods, while having human beings form the core of all analysis and objectives. Our approach utilizes a three-phase development to contextualize, evaluate, and design, using an iterative loop, plans and scenarios designed for the specific needs of the community, in addition to larger challenges. An equal emphasis is placed on feedback loops from analysis and design, to achieve the end goal of smart communities.
