Abstract

"Charrette", originally a French word, denotes an intense work session that includes analyzing a focused area and proposing future designs for the area. It is becoming popular in the urban design field. GIS seems to be useful in charrette because GIS can provide considerable geographic information to participapnts efficiently. Therefore, we held a Japan-US collaborative charrette using GIS. This paper is intended to report the method and its results. Results show that GIS is actually useful in design processes.
