A Spatiotemporal Model as an Approach for Parameterizing the Inherited Cosmopolitan Urban Areas: Eastern Harbor,Alexandria-Egypt

Abstract

Eastern Harbor urban areas, Alexandria-Egypt, are inherited cosmopolitan spatial systems formed across eras. Parameterizing their inheritances is a scientific challenge according to their complex configuration and nonmetric meaning and value data. This study developed an approach for calibrating their urban parameter sets as vocabularies and governing grammars based on the space entity. Historical inductive method supports generating a valid spatiotemporal model, facilitating reliable deductive methods for investigating their deep-rooted urban anatomy based on anthropological temporal frames, followed by defining the inherited space-syntax via the resulting ontology-based model. The proposed systematic conceptual approach’s findings would serve informatic-based actions in continuous obsolescence.
