Uploaded on 2015-06-13 by anacocho
The picture corresponds to Amsterdam city center. The visible information we can see: - Traditional 3-4 storeys buildings, shopping street, trams lines, no cars, Crowded shopping zone Invisible information that can be extracted: - strict urban rules regarding refurbishment and making traditional building conservation compulsory - Pedestrian flow in the city center predominates over the cars one - traditional shopping method is preferred over big malls - bike lanes will be crowded too These info will probably help us to design future planning of infrastructures bike & pedestrian based as well as to encourage public transports. Scale of planning must be variable and when reaching the city center be based on pedestrian flows and environmental concerns. [1]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14341830029712207.jpg
