“…They conclude with the need for a variety of participation technologies for encompassing various planning interests among the general public and avoiding encouraging elitist-based participation focusing on those who are able and willing to use power over others. Such technologies may include geographic information systems (GIS) [45], machine learning [46], 3D software [47] or game engines [48].…”

Targeted nature-based small-scale interventions is an approach commonly adopted by urban developers. The public acceptance of their implementation could be improved by participation, emphasizing residents or shopkeepers located close to the areas of interest. In this work, we propose a methodology that combines 3D technology, based on open data sources, user-generated content, 3D software and game engines for both minimizing the time and cost of the whole planning process and enhancing citizen participation. The proposed schemes are demonstrated in Piraeus (Greece) and Gladsaxe (Denmark). The core findings can be summarized as follows: (a) the time and cost are minimized by using online databases, (b) the gamification of the planning process enhances the decision making process and (c) the interactivity provided by the game engine inspired the participation of non-experts in the planning process (co-creation and co-evaluation), which decentralizes and democratizes the final planning solution.

“…Also, it was particularly interesting to address video game graphics engine technology applied to heritage, as it facilitates visualisation with a certain degree of realism and interaction for all types of users. This technology has been used in the scientific literature to render urban and natural environments, including heritage buildings [17,18] and sites [19] and fictional proposals for the sake of sustainable development [20] and aimed at landscape research and design teaching [21][22][23]. Future research into artificial intelligence could generate new fields of work that have yet to be explored.…”

Urban Environment of Disappeared Heritage: Graphic Analysis of Puerta Real in Seville

2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The city of Seville experienced a remarkable rise in the 16th century thanks to trade with America. Based on a report by the architect Hernán Ruiz, it was decided to renovate the gates of the walled city. The Puerta Real, also called Puerta de Goles, was remodelled between 1560 and 1566, and King Philip II entered through it in 1570. However, it was demolished around 1864, and only the remains of the adjacent wall stand today. This research aims to graphically analyse the gate and its immediate surroundings to gain a more profound knowledge of it and to promote its heritage value. To this end, an extensive collection and analysis of historical images has been carried out, which are essential for understanding the transformations of the site. A photograph by Masson (c. 1855–1860) was next used to support the virtual reconstruction of the gate. A 3D laser scanner was also used to document the existing archaeological remains and, via game-engine technology, to recreate rigorously, for the first time, this 16th-century gate in its current environment. This research could be useful for future scientific reconstruction to promote the heritage revitalisation of this city area.
