Abstract
The arrangement of buildings and their forms in houses, such as roofs, eaves, and walls, in the Important Preservation Districts for Groups of Traditional Buildings were analyzed to determine the composition of historic Japanese streetscapes. Then, based on the form data and publicly provided map data, simplified three-dimensional models of the streetscapes, depicting their images, were represented using the automatic form generation method. The characteristics of the historic Japanese streetscapes were explored using the simplified models.
