Kean Walmsley from our Autodesk Research Team wrote a great blog post on space analysis using Dynamo and Refinery.
“For Project Discover we used 2D space analysis to calculate various metrics that scored the individual layouts:
- Adjacency
- Buzz
- Productivity
- Views to outside
- Daylight
The first two are largely about calculating paths between various locations, while the last three are implemented by ray-casting. These approaches are definitely connected, though: you need to specify boundaries (and barriers) that the various algorithms will “see”. It’s our belief that there’s value in having a unified approach… we’ll see if that turns out to be true.”
