TOPOLUMA

Features

Architectural site analysis software

A site analysis board usually takes days of tracing maps. TOPOLUMA draws the standard diagrams from open data around any site and lays them out on a sheet you can print or edit.

What you get

Diagrams from data
Figure-ground, streets and green space, building heights in bands, building use and age, land use, walking distance in minutes, modelled road noise, shadows, elevation, slope and aspect.
Climate
Sun path and shadows for any date, insolation sheets, and wind roses from five years of hourly data.
Figures
Coverage, estimated floor area and floor area ratio, green share and street length inside the frame.
Ready for a board
One diagram or a set on A4 to A1, as PDF, PNG, JPEG or SVG, each with a legend, north arrow and scale bar.

How to do it

  1. Search the site and draw the area.
  2. Generate the preview.
  3. Open Analysis, choose a circle or square around the site and its size.
  4. Pick the diagrams and download the sheet.

Limits to know

Building heights, uses and ages come from OpenStreetMap and are only as complete as the map; each diagram states how many buildings have the value mapped. Noise is a model from road classes, not a measurement. More on the data and accuracy page.
