This project is intended for people who are working in fields such as climate adaptation, livability, policies regarding green environments, and urban planning.

This project showcases the method for calculating the 3-30-300 policy guidelines in the Tygron Platform.

The demo is a working project in which a number of generally available Grid Overlays in the Tygron Platform are combined to perform specific policy-dictated calculations. Following the 3-30-300 guidelines as closely as possible, these methods calculate sightlines onto trees, foliage coverage, and distance to significant usable green spaces.

Rule-3

Rule 3 dictates that, from any residence, at least 3 trees should be visible. Although explicitly counting the amount of trees is currently not possible, it ís possible to draw sightlines from trees, detect outside walls of residences, and combine the two to find the walls which do or do not have sight on a tree.

• A map of residences is created.
• A map of walls of residences is created.
• An additional Attribute is attached to Functions of trees, indicating the distance at which they can be seen.
• A Distance Sight Overlay is used to draw sightlines to trees, by referring to that Attribute.
• A Combo Overlay combines walls of residences and tree sightlines, to display which walls can or cannot see a tree.

Rule-30

Rule 30 dictates that 30% of the public space must feature foliage.

Rule-300

Rule 300 dictates that a residence must be at most 300m away from a publicly accessible and usable green area of at least 1 hectare in size (10.000 m²).
