Systematic Thinking and Digital Design: Simulating Natural Waterscape Design with the Software ArcGIS

摘要

"Simulating natural" waterscapes mean generating waterscapes by simulating the formation process of natural waterscapes. This paper systematically examines the formation process of natural waterscapes, constructs a design process model for simulating natural waterscapes, and discusses the digital analysis and design process for simulating natural waterscapes in virtue of ArcGIS software functions such as spatial analysis, hydrological analysis, virtual display, etc., in combination with water system landscaping practices in the northern area of Mt. Ox Head Scenic Spot in Nanjing, China.
