It provides a front-end for the depthmapX software within QGIS, offering user-friendly space syntax analysis workflows in a GIS environment. It is primarily aimed at supporting the space syntax methodology, and enhancing it with GIS data, analysis and visualisation features. Nevertheless, its functionality is of general benefit to QGIS users by introducing tools for exploratory spatial data analysis. In this article we present the "Space Syntax Toolkit", describing its principles and implementation, the features of its two initial modules - "Graph Analysis" and "Attribute Explorer" - and give indication of future developments. date: 2015-07-17 date_type: published publisher: Space Syntax Laboratory, The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL (University College London) official_url: http://www.sss10.bartlett.ucl.ac.uk/proceedings/ oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1068560 isbn_13: 9780993342905 lyricists_name: Karimi, Kayvan lyricists_name: Penn, Alan lyricists_name: Varoudis, Tasos lyricists_id: KKARI67 lyricists_id: APENN20 lyricists_id: TVARO74 actors_name: Karimi, Kayvan actors_name: Allington-Smith, Dominic actors_id: KKARI67 actors_id: DAALL44 actors_role: owner actors_role: impersonator full_text_status: public series: International Space Syntax Symposium publication: SSS 2015 - 10th International Space Syntax Symposium volume: 10 place_of_pub: London, UK event_title: 10th International Space Syntax Symposium (SSS10) book_title: Proceedings of the 10th International Space Syntax Symposium (SSS10) editors_name: Karimi, K editors_name: Vaughan, L editors_name: Sailer, K editors_name: Palaiologou, G editors_name: Bolton, T citation: Gil, J; Varoudis, T; Karimi, K; Penn, A; (2015) The space syntax toolkit: Integrating depthmapX and exploratory spatial analysis workflows in QGIS.
