The seminar provided a platform for academic exchange on climate-responsive public space design, computational urban science, AI-assisted spatial perception, and related approaches to urban and landscape research.</p> <p> <figure > <div class="d-flex justify-content-center"> <div class="w-100" ><img alt="" srcset=" /news/events/hitnus/Image1_hu_251e419e1a81b1e6.webp 400w, /news/events/hitnus/Image1_hu_976622182d2efa29.webp 760w, /news/events/hitnus/Image1_hu_b63b007f6adf08e.webp 1200w" src="https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/hitnus/Image1_hu_251e419e1a81b1e6.webp" width="760" height="285" loading="lazy" data-zoomable /></div> </div></figure> </p>https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/u21-in-uk/Mon, 01 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/u21-in-uk/<p>Dr. Jinda Qi, Principal Investigator of SmartScape Design Lab, participated in the Universitas 21 (U21) Early Career Researcher Workshop 2025, held at the University of Nottingham, UK. The workshop brought together early career researchers from U21 member universities across disciplines for cross-disciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange.</p> <p>The 2025 workshop centred on the theme of health across the life course, exploring topics including healthcare quality, health disparities, well-being through social systems, environmental factors, sustainability, and global health challenges. Participants engaged in small-group workshops, poster sessions, lightning talks, and panel discussions with established researchers from around the world.</p>https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/ifla/Mon, 01 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/ifla/<p>SmartScape Design Lab presented research at the IFLA World Congress 2025 in Nantes, France. Under the congress theme “Guiding Landscapes,” Dr. Jinda Qi, Principal Investigator of SmartScape Design Lab, shared the study “Development and Validation of 3D Spatial Metrics Using Point Clouds for Landscape Visual Quality Assessment.”</p> <p>The presentation highlighted the lab’s ongoing research on point clouds, spatial metrics, and landscape visual quality assessment, contributing to international discussions on data-informed landscape analysis and design.</p> <p> <figure > <div class="d-flex justify-content-center"> <div class="w-100" ><img alt="" srcset=" /news/events/ifla/Image1_hu_e70f3e0ac9511f04.webp 400w, /news/events/ifla/Image1_hu_92bdcdd61c46b17d.webp 760w, /news/events/ifla/Image1_hu_da4eae91eeb66250.webp 1200w" src="https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/ifla/Image1_hu_e70f3e0ac9511f04.webp" width="760" height="570" loading="lazy" data-zoomable /></div> </div></figure> <figure > <div class="d-flex justify-content-center"> <div class="w-100" ><img alt="" srcset=" /news/events/ifla/Image2_hu_68e5fe89169ff5d3.webp 400w, /news/events/ifla/Image2_hu_491e9955c0584640.webp 760w, /news/events/ifla/Image2_hu_d933773c1ebf35e8.webp 1200w" src="https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/ifla/Image2_hu_68e5fe89169ff5d3.webp" width="760" height="570" loading="lazy" data-zoomable /></div> </div></figure> </p>https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/nus-x-uq/Thu, 13 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://smartscapedesignlab.github.io/news/events/nus-x-uq/<p>SmartScape Design Lab joined the NUS x UQ Joint Symposium on Climate Resilience for Healthy Urbanism, an academic exchange jointly organized by the NUS Department of Architecture and the University of Queensland School of Architecture, Design and Planning. The symposium brought together researchers, staff, and PhD students from both institutions to discuss climate resilience, healthy urbanism, tropical design, and digital approaches to urban research.</p> <p>The event provided a valuable platform for sharing research related to climate-responsive urban design, urban heat mitigation, landscape design optimisation, thermal comfort, and urban digital twins.</p> <p>For more information, please visit the <a href="https://cde.nus.edu.sg/arch/news_and_events/news_ay2425_nus_uq_joint_symposium_130325/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official NUS Department of Architecture news page</a>.</p>
