ArchitectureWeek Description Rapid environmental changes in 21st-century cities require scientific monitoring as forests and farmlands depopulate and vast self-organized urban settlements develop in the absence of master planning. Remote sensing and handheld devices have the potential to shape and manage vast interconnected ecosystems at local, regional, and global scales. This book presents the architect’s role in managing the flow and form of information in shaping cities.
