Parametric Grading

I’m glad to see the group is consistently gaining members. In light of that I will try to do a better job of facilitating discussion on the topic. A recent idea that I have been toying with as of…Continue

Parametric Modeling of (potentially) non-formal/physical variables 2 Replies

Hello everyone, I’m excited to be part of this landscape parametrics discussion group! I was curious if anyone knows of groups/firms that are using Grasshopper to study behavioral psychology and…Continue

I've made some surfaces with patch in rhino (with 6 curves) now I wanna manipulate these in grasshopper but I couldn't, Do you know what should I do?

Great tool.
By cons as stated it does not work on mesh surfaces but not limited.

Comment by Matt Zambelli on March 27, 2012 at 1:29pm: Hey all,

I came across this great GH tutorial/script awhile back and thought I would share it with everyone. It basically acts like the “rain water” tool in GIS which will draw a vector along a mesh to represent the path a drop of water would follow from a defined point. Hopefully everyone will find it useful as it lets you use multiple source points.

Also can we open the discussion up to see what tools group member would like to see developed?

Cheers,

Matt

I am excited to see that the group is gaining some momentum and that the concept is being embraced by a diverse group of individuals. I wanted to share some precedent links for inspiration and hope that this page can evolve into catalogue of relevant references for the practice of Landscape Parametrics. This list is by no means exhaustive, but it is a start!

Verry good news, I'm working to same définition for calculation slope with mesh "landscape", and attribuate gradient ...

Comment by Matt Zambelli on October 7, 2011 at 10:30am: Hello,

There is no "plug in" per say in the works. What I am aiming to do with this group is provide a resource of existing, experimental, and potential grasshopper definitions that can be applied to Landscape Architectural practices.

Some definitions and workflows that I am personally working on are integrating GIS dem's into rhino then using existing grasshopper defs to generate contours. I am also experiemnting with slope and hydrology definitions. I will post things as the develop into working definitions.

Your group is called parametric landscape. I would be interested to see your pluggin, thank you in advance for your sharing.
