摘要：The article presents the possibilities of using 3D GIS in town planning and urban design, in order to determine the maximum height of the planned development, taking into account the landscape of the modeled area. The increasing speed of the urbanization of valuable natural areas requires strict procedures for determining the parameters of the planned developments, in order to minimise the negative impact of newly designed buildings on the existing landscape. The article presents the procedure for determining the maximum height of newly designed buildings, using the available tools of ArcGIS software. As a result, we have obtained a differential model in the form of a TIN triangle mesh, on the basis of which we are able to determine unequivocally the acceptable height of buildings within the boundary of the given development.
