AI Site Planning
AI-powered tools for optimizing site layouts and development planning.
Definition
AI Site Planning uses machine learning to analyze site conditions, constraints, and project requirements to generate optimal site layouts. These tools consider topography, access, utilities, solar orientation, views, and regulatory requirements to propose building placement, parking, and landscape arrangements. AI can evaluate thousands of layout options to identify configurations that maximize value while meeting all constraints.
In Depth
Site planning arranges the building(s), parking, access drives, utilities, and open space on a site to satisfy zoning requirements, code constraints, and design objectives. AI assists with the constraint analysis and layout optimization that site planning requires.
The constraint mapping combines zoning setbacks, easements, wetland buffers, flood zones, and utility corridors into a buildable area analysis that defines where on the site the building can be placed. AI generates this constraint map from the applicable regulations and the site survey, identifying the development envelope that satisfies all requirements.
Examples
Optimizing building orientation for solar access and views
Generating parking layout options that maximize efficiency
Planning site circulation for pedestrians and vehicles
