Security camera on store

Grasshopper
1

Hello all

Please see attached gh file

i´m trying to evaluate where to place a security camera on a store

Galápagos solves the larger área, or the área with a bigger isovist control

Now, i would like to add the minimun amount of cameras in order to view all the store

Since just one camera will allways leave some blind spots

Any ideas?

Interesting problem and use of IsoVist. I think they way you have it set up right now is just to find the best spot for a single camera. What you really want is to be able to add several cameras.

I started some work on it, but the problem is the region Union fails sometimes. But it might be a simple way to get there.

Yes, the Boolean Union is super slow and also fails easily. Maybe there is a better way, but you should be able to get pretty close using that method. Once it works, just leave it running over night.
