The book, the outcome of a multi-year research initiative within the School of Architecture and the School of Natural Resources and Environmental Engineering, describes the process of formulation and verification of an experimental model of urban design based on the integration of digital tools for the collection, systematization, evaluation and editing of information associated with the project. The proposed model, focused on the objective of improving thermal comfort in public space, is applied to a case study located in an informal urbanization sector of an intermediate city in the department of Valle del Cauca. The phases that structure the process are exposed, in which the use of digital tools of geographic information systems, parametric modeling and simulation of bioclimatic performance is alternated, producing as a result intervention guidelines for the positive transformation of the public spaces analyzed, as well as a strategy for the evaluation of the impact of the proposed interventions in the studied territory. It is expected that the model described will contribute in the field of urban design as a discipline committed to the improvement of sustainability indicators in urban environments of high environmental precariousness.
