The introduction includes a text by Charles Waldheim who coined the term ''landscape urbanism'' to define the re-emergence of landscape as a tool for contemporary urban structure. The urban planner and cartographer Murat Güvenç, whose work in the field of social geography has constructed the basis of Mapping Istanbul, focuses in his essays on the peculiar conditions that formed Istanbul's built environment and the ways in which the city's social geography can be deciphered through maps. The visualization of all data gathered throughout the project is realized by the Superpool team.
