Abstract

The link between the built environment as a geometrical dimension with the human behaviour and emotional aspects in recent planning research field has got a growing interest in the field of city planning. The emotional dimension in particular has become an essential part in city planning field where the emotional relation and the degree of emotional response are structuring spaces followed by behaviours and can therefore be relevant for human interactive in urban spaces. The theoretical, empirical, and practical work in this field has generally aimed to enhance the quality of life through the creation of new layers for our cities considering these behaioural and emotional aspects. This paper is an analytical part of a research work on the micro level of city planning focusing on the growing importance of computing and mobile technologies. It creates a linkage between cities, people and technologies through integrating quantitative limits and qualitative criteria. It investigates a new layer presenting the citizens’ behaviours and emotions "EmoBeL", which could be added to the geometrical layer and create a city analysis to improve decision making process as well as physical planning in our cities, which is the main goal of planners, developers and even politicians.
