The application of virtual reality to cultural heritage, environment, and landscape planning is extremely useful to experiment various scenarios which could not be necessarily realised in the real world; both for educational and research purposes. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how 3D representations can be utilised as a valid support for urban planners and designers in order to verify...

Urban furniture is a wide collection of objects different sizes and geometries, performing functions in the city. The paper describes history contemporary development trends urban furniture. It analyses construction materials most often used their production, as well functional aesthetic solutions.

While the efforts to ensure ecological balance for a sustainable and livable future have gained momentum in recent years, materials become more needed this context. Sustainable can be summarized as that consume less energy do not harm environment, nature, human health, from process of obtaining their raw processing stages, use, maintenance, repair, environmental conditions they are during waste...

The automatic process for texturing 3D urban environments realistically is a challenging topic in Computer Graphics, especially when the model is generated from 2D GIS data from real sites. In order to achieve realistic scenes, buildings, urban furniture and street roadways should be modeled automatically also considering the slope of steep streets. A texturing process by hand which takes into ...

In this paper, we deal with the effects of urban landscapes on land prices under uncertainty, represented by fuzzy numbers. To this end, the factors for evaluating urban landscapes are designed using fuzzy numbers. Moreover, we consider 11 factors for utilizing the approach, like as Continuity of external walls, Conformity of colors and materials, Favorable pedestrian space, Decorations and str...
