gloBFPr: Urban Environment Analysis Using Global Building Height Datasets

Automated access and analysis of multidimensional building profile in cities. The package provides tools to access, search, and download global 3D building footprint datasets. It includes functions to retrieve building height tiles, compute a range of 2D/2.5D building morphology metrics, assess environmental context (e.g., greenery accessibility), aggregate metrics to the city-block scale, support noise, shadow/radiation, and wind simulation, export study areas as 3D scenes (terrain, buildings, canopy) for 3D modeling software, such as Rhino3D and Blender.
