Abstract
This thesis is going to discus the advantages of the use of a GPS as a tool for surveying the pedestrian movements of individuals in an urban environment. An experiment is going to take place that will try to evolve City designs specifically for the pedestrian movements of particular individuals whose tracks have been recorded with a GPS for this specific purpose. The aim is to see if the rest of participants’ movement habits have been affected by this mutation in the city grid and if yes in what ways. As Cities can be considered as Emergent environment that are generated through the interaction of several factors it would be interesting to see how this different way of generating city plans would affect the outcome.
