Surveying the roofs of Rome
نویسنده
چکیده
This study is aimed at investigating a portion of the city of Rome by means of remotely sensed Multispectral Infrared And Visible Imaging Spectrometer (MIVIS) data. A particular attention was devoted to building roofs described not only as the last defining touch given to a building, the aesthetic conclusion to a whole construction process, but also as expression and sign of a society’s level of civilisation, culture and technical skill. Through the classification of objects and materials, we propose to combine history and science as different ways of interpreting a city, in this case Rome, and to implement an image processing technique as an effective tool in urban planning. © 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Analysis of the Solar Potential of Roofs by Using Official Lidar Data
This paper focuses on a field test that locates roof areas with a high solar potential and predicts the solar “harvest” per m. The test analyzes 2.5D LIDAR data provided by official surveying and mapping sources. The primary LIDAR data is prepared by masking the roofs’ contours and afterwards filtering the point cloud by a threshold value. The remaining LIDAR data, which represents the building...
متن کاملHydroponics Roofs for Saving Energy of Green Schools in the Cold and Dry climate of Iran: A Comparative Study between Two Broad and Modular Hydroponic Green Roofs
Green schools are a new type of school, in which the use of renewable energy is less than that of conventional schools. In this regard, nowadays, adding green layers to the roof of schools, in addition to increasing the Students' communication with nature, energy saving has improved in these spaces. However, to improve energy saving yield, the priority of these types of roofs in different clima...
متن کاملEffect of Flexural and Membrane Stiffness on the Analysis of Floating Roofs
With the aim of extending the use of integrated variational principles on fluid and deckplate to the large deflection analysis of floating roofs, this paper investigates the significance of theflexural and membrane components in the formulations of the deck plate. Applying integratedvariational principles on deck plate and fluid facilitate the treatment of the compatibility ofdeformation betwee...
متن کاملAn integrated method to valuate the function of green roofs in absorbing air pollutants; Case study: Tehran
Tehran is the capital city of Iran and its inhabitants are suffering from air pollution.Green roofs can be one of the choices to deal with this problem. In this paper, ability ofgreen roofs in absorbing four air pollutants (PM10, SO2, NO2, and CO2) in Tehran wasvaluated. First, the potential of 1 m2 of a hypothetical green roof in Tehran in absorbingPM10 and SO2 during 1 year was estimated usin...
