Description

Hektar is an innovative cloud-based software designed for generative design, specifically aimed at assisting with early-stage urban planning, pre-design, and schematic design tasks. Created by Parametric, it empowers architects and urban planners to improve their projects by effectively managing the complexities involved in critical design phases. By leveraging evolutionary algorithms and artificial generative intelligence, the platform transforms user inputs from broad concepts into detailed, viable designs and accurate estimates. Hektar’s suite of tools incorporates both geometrical and geographical intelligence, enabling users to specify essential features like access points, exclusions for construction, and custom street layouts. Furthermore, it offers numerical controls, allowing for precise adjustments related to project elements such as building depth, greenery integration, and parking arrangements. The software begins processing intricate information about lighting and sun exposure early in the geometry pipeline, leading to the creation of informed design proposals that can adapt to various scenarios. In this way, Hektar not only enhances the design process but also fosters collaboration among multiple stakeholders involved in urban development projects.

Description

Facilitate the planning and examination of urban development by analyzing the complex relationships among land use, transportation systems, economic factors, and environmental considerations. Investigate how various infrastructure decisions and policy implementations impact community results, including access for both motorized and non-motorized transport, housing affordability, levels of greenhouse gas emissions, and the preservation of open spaces and ecologically sensitive areas. Rapidly set up and initiate UrbanSim simulations utilizing the advantages of cloud-based technology. Provide actionable insights that are accessible to users, regardless of their technical proficiency. The UrbanSim block-level template is pre-equipped with employment, household, and socioeconomic data for nearly 400 Metropolitan Planning Organizations throughout the United States, alongside street networks sourced from OpenStreetMap to effectively calculate accessibility metrics. This comprehensive approach ensures that urban planners can make informed decisions that support sustainable growth and community well-being.
