Isovist
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- This article is about the architectural area called an isovist. Isovist is also a brand name for the chemical iotrolan
An isovist is either the area visible from a location in a plan in two dimensions, or the visible polyhedron surrounding a location in three dimensions. It is used in the field of architecture for analysis of buildings and urban areas, typically as one of a series of methods used in space syntax.
It is similar to the concept of a viewshed in the field of geographic information science, although viewer height is not usually included.
