Transdisciplinary urban research : visualisation tools
(2025) In Urban Arena Testbeds Report- Abstract
- This report provides a summary of 11 visualisations that have been developed by scholars who are engaged in transdisciplinary urban research. We identified the visualisations through a review of academic literature in the disciplines of Architecture, Planning, Geography, Urban Studies, and Sustainability Science between 2010 to 2023. Some of the visualisations are original while others are derived from previous research and have gone through multiple iterations. With each visualisation, we asked the following questions:
• How is transdisciplinary research being framed?
• Which theories or practical approaches does the visualisation address?
• Which actors are represented in the visualisation and how are their...

We identified the visualisations through a review of academic literature in the disciplines of Architecture, Planning, Geography, Urban Studies, and Sustainability Science between 2010 to 2023. Some of the visualisations are original while others are derived from previous research and have gone through multiple iterations. With each visualisation, we asked the following questions:
• How is transdisciplinary research being framed?
• Which theories or practical approaches does the visualisation address?
• Which actors are represented in the visualisation and how are their interactions
characterised?
• How does the visualisation contribute to transdisciplinary research practice?
In the report, we have organised the 11 visualisations organised into three categories: 1) conceptual framings, 2) process dynamics, and 3) analytic tools.
This is not a comprehensive catalogue of visualisations on transdisciplinary urban research but rather a selection of the work done by scholars to distil transdisciplinary research principles and experiences into accessible and useful diagrams. The visualisations are representative of a larger collection of tools that have been developed by a wide range of transdisciplinary urban researchers over the past 15 years. (Less)
