Landscape Parametrics

Landscape Parametrics is a forum for the investigation, experimentation, and application of parametric modeling in the field of Landscape Architecture.

  • Landform Generation

    Hi all,I'm looking for a tutorial on how to create a GIS-to-grasshopper workflow to generate landforms like the attached photographs. Any clues?

  • CFD- Computational Fluid Dynamics

    With the growing advancement in technology, CFD is slowly being utilized in the field of landscape architecture.There are a couple of softwares out there, (ANSYS, Butterfty, Simscale). I want to know in this discussion, the best possible software to use to date.

  • Path finding across a terrain

    Hi All--A New Year's share with all: https://vimeo.com/197687695We've developed a simple set of scripts for our students to simulate an agent or agents walking across a terrain. The GH scripts use the Anemone plug-in to loop the decision…

  • Sea current simulation

    HiI would like to map sea current forces around a beach and simulate the behaviour of sea currents to find suitable areas for breakwaters that will reduce sand erosion in the beach. I would also like to simulate the behaviour of sea current forces with breakwaters. Does anybody know of a similar…

  • Parametric Topo Design & Analysis

    Hi All—In the spirit of sharing, I’m posting the parametric topo script that we use to teach our first year landscape architecture students @ University of Pennsylvanian digital topography.Using simple curve profile modeling, the students can quickly explore, measure, and test a range of…

  • Local Lowest Points

    Hey guys,I was trying to find lowest points on a landform(mesh) but could not figure it out via grasshopper, so I write a python script, hope this may help someone who has the same problem...…

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

    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 experience in landscape architecture?  I’ve been tinkering with this idea of “translating” human…

  • Parametric landscape HELP!

    Hello all, I am fairly new to GH, and just familiarizing myself with the tools and so forth.I have a landscape/surface midtern coming up, and i know this look is far beyond what i can accomplish considering im a beginner, but hopefully someone can show me how i can get close to accomplishing this…

  • 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 late is parametric grading using grasshopper.My initial line of thought would be to use responsive…
