COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED LAND PLANNING SYSTEM AND METHOD WITH GIS INTEGRATION |
摘要 |
A computer-implemented land planning system is designed to generate at least one conceptual fit solution to a user-defined land development problem. The system employs a computer readable medium and a computer program encoded on the medium. The computer program is operable, when executed on a computer, for electronically creating at least one candidate solution to the land development problem. The candidate solution incorporates a plurality of engineering measurements applicable in development of an undeveloped land site. Existing GIS data is collected for the selected undeveloped land site. A fitness function quantitatively evaluates the candidate solution based on its cost. A heuristic problem-solving strategy manipulates the engineering measurements of the candidate solution to achieve a more quantitatively fit solution to the land development problem. Documentation illustrating the fit solution to the land development problem is delivered to the user. |

1. A computer-implemented land planning system designed to generate at least one conceptual fit and cost-optimized solution to a user-defined land development problem, said system comprising:
means for collecting existing GIS data for a selected undeveloped land site, said GIS data being selected from a group consisting of site boundaries, topography, and satellite imagery; means for electronically generating at least one candidate solution to the land development problem, said candidate solution comprising a plurality of interrelated engineering measurements applicable in development of the undeveloped land site, and said plurality of engineering measurements being selected from a group consisting of site layout, site grading, and site utilities; said plurality of engineering measurements comprising respective cost data; an optimization engine adapted for manipulating said engineering measurements of said candidate solution until at least one cost-optimized fit solution to the land development problem is achieved, whereby a change relative to one of said plurality of engineering measurements for said candidate solution effects a change relative to another of said plurality of engineering measurements for that candidate solution; and means for outputting to a user documentation illustrating said cost-optimized fit solution to the land development problem. |
