Abstract

Urban skylines are important components of a city’s morphology and are an area of interest for urban design. There are various research areas on urban skylines like protection of historical urban skylines, facade analyses, future models on urban three-dimensional appearances, high building policies and view management. Urban skylines also provide the best visual representations to observe the phenomenon of urban transformation and change. The aim of this study is to form a basis for a multi-component urban skyline assessment model that includes formal and socio-psychological dimensions by grouping the methodologies of studies on urban skylines. Among the methods to be covered, there are approaches such as GIS techniques, aesthetic evaluation with information entropy, fractal geometry, and cognitive studies for urban skylines. The research approach includes the examination and evaluation of applied studies of this area based on literature.
