WHY LUCISplus
• LUCISplus
• A process of analyzing planning land-use scenarios and comparing results systemically that we hope helps identify both intended and unintended impacts of our designs and plans.
• It provides a process for analysis alternatives in support of design and plan making.
• It also maintains the necessity for individual creativity brought to the process by designers and planners.

QUERIES WITHIN THE CEM – MANUAL OR PROGRAMMATIC
• Within the CEM (Criteria Evaluation Matrix):
• Use queries to make selections and allocations
• Calculate available residential or employment allocations
• Assign residential population allocations
• Multi-family or single family
• Assign employment allocations
• Commercial, Retail, Service, Industrial, and Institutional
• Assign mixed-use allocations
• Employment with residential
• Residential with Employment
REDEVELOPMENT MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL
CENTERSLCE19 – Zones in proximity to central employment opportunity (Top two zones)
REDEVCONFLICT – Redevelopment opportunity (High Opportunity for Multi-family)
YRBUILT – Looking for parcels with structure built 1995 or earlier.
YRBUILT – Looking for parcels with structure built 1995 or earlier.
CITYNAME – City name (in this case Tampa, Florida)
DENSITY – Unit density (25 units per acre)
ALLYRPOP – No allocated residential population in the query.
Once query 4.2 is completed, the allocated population is 36,331 more people. There are
15,063 new dwelling units. The extra redevelopment is located on an additional 361 acres
with an average unit density of 42 units.

SUITABILITY AUTOMATION TOOLS
A4 COMMUNITY VALUES CALCULATOR
Used to determine the numeric weight of suitability rasters
- Integrates any number of objective and sub-objective raster suitability layers as inputs
- Interface prompts the user to specify the usefulness of each pair of raster layers and dynamically compares the raster pair
- Automatically populates a pairwise comparison matrix and outputs a parameter table of the raster names and their corresponding relative weights
SUITABILITY AUTOMATION TOOLS
A4 TREND ALLOCATION TOOL
Works on a CEM that contains a conflict layer as well as other masks and constraints to prioritize the allocation process.
- Iterative
- User-specified conditions/constraints
- Up to 2 conditions and 6 masks
A4 DETAILED ALLOCATION TOOL
- Up to 12 conditions and 6 masks
SUITABILITY AUTOMATION TOOLS
A4 ALLOCATION BY TABLE TOOL
- (Base) 2 conditions and 6 masks
- Up to 8 conditions, 2 of which are iterative inside the tool
- User-specified conditions/constraints
- Allocates directly within the table and summarizes the population based upon the previous iterations
