Architectural site analysis software
A site analysis board usually takes days of tracing maps. TOPOLUMA draws the standard diagrams from open data around any site and lays them out on a sheet you can print or edit.
What you get
- Diagrams from data
- Figure-ground, streets and green space, building heights in bands, building use and age, land use, walking distance in minutes, modelled road noise, shadows, elevation, slope and aspect.
- Climate
- Sun path and shadows for any date, insolation sheets, and wind roses from five years of hourly data.
- Figures
- Coverage, estimated floor area and floor area ratio, green share and street length inside the frame.
- Ready for a board
- One diagram or a set on A4 to A1, as PDF, PNG, JPEG or SVG, each with a legend, north arrow and scale bar.
How to do it
- Search the site and draw the area.
- Generate the preview.
- Open Analysis, choose a circle or square around the site and its size.
- Pick the diagrams and download the sheet.
Limits to know
Building heights, uses and ages come from OpenStreetMap and are only as complete as the map; each diagram states how many buildings have the value mapped. Noise is a model from road classes, not a measurement. More on the data and accuracy page.
