Lecture for Urban Design Analysis Using NNA

Lecture at NYIT, Oct 2020

1. Urban Design Quality and Walkability

: Street type & Walking culture

: Built environment factors and active accessibility (3Ds — Density, Diversity & Design)

2. Spatial Network Analysis in Transportation Geography

: How important is the location in the city? Is the place easy to access? or What is your walking route?

: Euclidean Distance vs. Network Distance / Distance Decay / Weights / Centrality Analysis (Betweenness, Closeness, Straightness, Degree)/ Accessibility Analysis (Reach, Gravity, Huff model)

: Project in Cambridge, “How do pedestrians choose routes during evening peak hours?”

: Project in Tallinn, “Design for mobility route”

3. Examples of Numeric Network Analysis using the NNA Toolbox

: About NNA Toolbox / Download NNA Addon GH (Food4Rhino)

: Ex1. Centrality Test (understand the hierarchical context) / Ex2. Centrality Test (connection efficiency, Cafe vs. Cultural) / Ex 3. Who visits the SQs the most? How far are you willing to walk to Squares? (Accessibility) / Ex 4. what is my chance to visit Union Square from the cafe? (Huff) / Ex 5. Building circulation & evacuation plan (Centrality & Accessibility)

4. Urban Research and Design Workshop using NNA Toolbox
