NoiseXcape: Can Open Data Help Us Predict Urban Noise?


MaCAD 2025-2026 by
MaCAD 2025-2026

Introduction Noise is one of the most pervasive environmental stressors in cities. Long-term exposure has been linked to sleep disturbance, cardiovascular disease, reduced cognitive performance, and lower overall quality of life. Yet despite its importance, detailed noise maps are surprisingly difficult to obtain. Producing official noise maps requires measurements, traffic models, and considerable technical effort. … Read more

Interior floor plan used as project setup for plant suitability prediction

Tile-based machine-learning workflow for indoor plant suitability prediction Introduction Plant placement in interior spaces is usually treated as an intuitive or aesthetic decision. However, different areas inside the same room can receive very different levels of sun, radiation, useful daylight and humidity. This project proposes a machine-learning workflow to classify interior space into plant suitability … Read more

MaCAD 2025-2026

ML-Driven Plant Placement for Adaptive Architecture BioSpatial Intelligence explores how machine learning can support planting decisions in architectural spaces. The project starts from a simple design question: when we design a building, how can we decide which plants belong to which environmental conditions? Instead of relying only on intuition, we developed a workflow that reads … Read more

MaCAD 2025-2026

Objective Traditional flood risk maps take months to produce, are updated only every few years, and are too coarse, they might say a whole district is at risk without telling you which specific street or field will actually be underwater. “We are going to predict whether any given location in Thessaly, Greece is Flood-Prone or … Read more

NYC – Urban Land Use


MaCAD 2025-2026 by
MaCAD 2025-2026

Can we predict what kind of use does a city grid hosts — Commercial vs. Residential — from its built form, morphology, and proximity to other urban features? “Can we predict the land use of a space based on existing environmental information from official and unofficial sources?” What’s the sweet spot for a Machine Learning … Read more
