Locating a metro line in a historical city centre: application to Sevilla

When constructing a metro alignment under a historical city centre, it is important to generate a cost-effective path while maintaining a minimum distance between the alignment and historical buildings. This paper describes a simple methodology for generating a set of good alternative solutions. It...

Descrição
Resumo:When constructing a metro alignment under a historical city centre, it is important to generate a cost-effective path while maintaining a minimum distance between the alignment and historical buildings. This paper describes a simple methodology for generating a set of good alternative solutions. It is based on the use of Voronoi diagrams. The method was applied to data from the city of Sevilla.
