ABSTRACT
How have contemporary practices using three-dimensional digital modeling allowed
individuals (including architects and urban dwellers) to view their city in ways that
“flat,” two-dimensional street maps have not? During recent years, advances in
technology have allowed for greater use of digital media for developing such repre-
sentations. This chapter examines the role of these techniques, including data-driven
visualization as means of representing the “unacknowledged” features of the city.
