3D VISUALIZATION OF TRANSFORMATION IN HISTORIC TOWNSCAPE: CASE OF ZEYREK URBAN SITE

Representation of the change in townscape is significantly important throughout the urban planning process in order to gain better comprehension regarding urban transformation. Then innovative visualization and representation tools may facilitate to accomplish this comprehension in third dimension. While recent conservation studies and interventions indicated a significant change in Zeyrek Urban Historic Area, motivation of this paper was based on the capability of two and three dimensional visualization techniques in definition of transformation in site’s townscape. A questionnaire study was also conducted to gather the responses from the users, respectively graduate students in Faculty of Architecture, professions in planning and conservation institutions, high school students in the site as the representatives of inhabitants. As the fundamental finding of the study, it was concluded that the transformation in historic townscape was better defined in 3D urban model than 2D conventional mapping technique.
