Parametrics in Planning Launch

Phase 1: Survey
The beginning of my research will include this survey intended to gather a broad perspective from the design community on the relevance of parametric design and design tools to the profession of urban planning. You need not have a background in parametrics or planning or both, just the ability to answer a simple question.

Please mark an answer below. Be sure to click "vote" after each question. If you don't see an appropriate answer choice, then skip the question. If you would like to further discuss any of the questions, qualify your responses, or pose another question then please comment below.
