Multi‐Level Street‐Based Analysis of the Urban Fabric: Developments for a Nationwide Taxonomy
Alessandro Araldi,
Giovanni Fusco
Abstract:Multiple fabric assessment (MFA) is a computer‐aided procedure designed for identifying and characterizing urban fabric types (morphotypes) from a street‐based perspective. Nonetheless, the original MFA presents some limitations: it relies on surface‐based descriptors, conceived as proxy variables for the pedestrian perspective in urban form analysis, rather than direct sight‐based measurements. It also uses building footprint classes as proxies for building types. The spatial statistics on the street network … Show more
