The lab was founded in 1965 and exists as a quasi-independent organization at the GSD. Historically, the lab concentrated on displaying spatial data from landscape architecture as well as developing computer catrography. Currently, the seven-member staff is also working in architecture modelling, techniques for color shading and micro...
Explaining the two decades of use for landscape architecture, R Denis White, a research associate at the lab says "Graphics allows you to assemble as much data as is necessary--endangered animal habitats water quality, visual quality...to make a geographic information system."
One of the pioneers in land-use planning and management is Carl F. Steinitz, Professor of Landscape Architecture and Urban Design. Steinitz has been studying the Western slope of the Rocky Mountains near Gunnison, Col.
Now, the lab is adding another area to its repertoire. Shedeck says that "only in the past couple of years have we discussed problems in architecture, we're starting to give the lab a more balanced approach." In architecture, the lab is developing techniques for use during the production stage...
Mark van Norman, who has a joint appointment as a Research Associate in computer graphics and as a Lecturer in Architecture, says that in the past five years new techniques like solid modelling methods have become possible because of improved software which is broadening graphics' applications. The computer can represent...
