Carlos Bartesaghi Koc

Currently, I am a Lecturer in Landscape Architecture at University of Adelaide. Before, I completed my PhD in Planning and Urban Development (UNSW) in 2018, where I analysed the thermal performance of green infrastructure on urban microclimate using remote sensing, spatial econometrics and predictive modelling methods. My research received the inaugural Dean's Award for Outstanding PhD theses in 2019. I am interested in analysing the spatial and temporal dynamics and interactions that occur in the built environment by applying a 'systems thinking' approach. In particular, I focus on performance-based analysis of cities, neighbourhoods, urban precincts, streets and buildings from ecological and holistic point of views. My second research focus is on climate-sensitive and generative+responsive design supported by computational and sensing technologies such as AI, machine learning, IoT and smart sensors.
