The platform’s components connect new 3D spatial technologies such as photogrammetry spatial data that simulate microclimate conditions in detailed accuracy, field-based socio-spatial studies that document human narratives and programmatic requirements of everyday activity in suburban streets and yards, and vegetation typology matrices that collate plant species characteristics according to urban conditions and ecosystem’s function. This chapter explains our research for a citizen-driven ‘platform’ which integrates ecology in the technological and social enablers of the Green Mesh. ![]() ![]() ![]() In response to the related issues of natural habitat fragmentation and human disconnection from nature, we have been investigating an urban planning concept we call a ‘Green Mesh’, which is a fine-grained and continuous green network that could be retrofitted into the extensively built-up areas between a city’s skeletal grid of parklands and street vegetation.
