NUS: Performative Modelling
This course focuses on evaluating alternative spatial models to support evidence-based decision making. You will learn methods for calculating various spatial performance metrics related to the built environment. You will use these performance metrics to carry out comparative analysis of design options. By the end of the course, you will be able to create scripts that automate the process of generating and analysing alternative design options.
