A Viewshed Analysis is an assessment tool which determines the viewshed (the environment or context visible from a location) of your project. The analysis involves a process of identifying locations that are visible from one or more observer points. The analysis aids in understanding and identifying what locations a building can be seen from and if any views will be blocked as a result of a new development.
The purpose of a Viewshed Analysis is to determine how visible your project may be from determined locations (or observer points). This analysis can be used to indicate a number of potential benefits and drawbacks including (but not limited to):
A Viewshed Analysis is obtained using a Geographic Information System (GIS) software.
