Learning topics in urban planning at UFMG:Geoprocessing to support analysis, planning and proposal of the urban landscape at neighborhood scale

Abstract

Reports the experience of training students in the use of geotechnologies to support analysis, planning and proposal of the urban landscape at neighborhood scale, using Multi-Criteria Analysis for identification potentials, vocations and conflicts of interest in land use. They built Environmental Interest Synthesis, Urban Occupation Synthesis, and Conflicts of interest Synthesis. The three-dimensional representation of the territory was used to support the proposed zoning. Students act in a more conscious manner when creating projects, undertaking predictive studies on the landscape, since they are fully able to understand the consequences of the intervention on urban spaces and observe climatic changes.
